Enter the Eco-Art competition at Peppermint magazine
I’m doing a bit of work with Kelley, the chick behind Peppermint (a new magazine launching imminently), and she asked me to help spread the word about their Eco-Art competition.

Are you a vector fiend?
I have just been browsing Coudal Partners’ Layer Tennis. Matches consist of a ten volley round of vector tennis between two graphic artists.
