Mitchell & Dent's Tittle Tattle

I am a sad fan of Matte Stephens. The reason it has taken me so long to tell you what I love about him is because I’m a ditherer. I can barely choose from a menu without the fear of meal envy, so deciding which of his works to show is a near impossible task. By choosing one or two or three favourites means a few dozen more equally wonderful works are neglected. But then, in my quarantined snufflehead state last week I revisited my favourite film from childhood – Mon Oncle – and the decision was made. You’ll be delighted to know Matte Stephens artworks are available from Perth’s brand new Outré Gallery in William Street.

Burnese-born English illustrator Nila Aye‘s work is so sweet it might give you cavities, but I think I have discovered Nila’s naughty side. Find her Flickr photostream and one of the funniest illustrations about boob jobs I’ve ever seen. Not that I’ve seen a lot of illustrations about boob jobs. Boobs. It is a funny word, isn’t it? I’m sorry Nila, I didn’t mean for this post to descend into smuttiness.

M&D are monstrous fans of designers Katie Kirk and Nathan Strandberg and their studio Eight Hour Day in Minneapolis. Katie is also a crazy talented illustrator and out of the kindness of heart, she has made the world this iPhone wallpaper in honour of Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland movie. Makes you grin like a Cheshire cat, that kind of kindness.

Mitchell & Dent heartily recommend you purchase your most important paper procurements from cat people like themselves. Dog people simply want to be loved, whereas cat people know how to serve. And if you’re an incredibly talented mid century illustrator like Bernice Myers, please indulge us with more pictures of cats. Then Eric Sturdevant from Virginia can post more pictures on his illustration blog Fun All Around and we’ll all be purring with contentment.
