Carman's Deluxe Fruit Muesli

 

I am a sucker for good packaging, so much so that I sometimes end up buying a wine bottle or a Christmas candy for the lovely graphics or delightful illustrations on them. My such recent purchase was Carman's Deluxe Fruit Muesli with an owl image on the front of the box giving a sneak-peek of the content inside the box. The brand will win your heart at the first glance for it's cute squirrel, cow and owl illustrations but you won't be disappointed by the delicious crunchy muesli which I went through pretty fast! Have you ever bought a product because of it's lovely packaging? What was the product?

Mixed Media by Lisa Congdon

New mixed media works by San Francisco based artist and illustrator Lisa Congdon. Her paintings are a beautiful fusion of pencil sketches, vintage and found paper, and fake fur. The bright color palette and use of geometric shapes in these paintings is what caught my eye in the very first place.
