Colours & Lines Illustrations by James Oconnell + Weekend Links

 

These "Colour & Line" illustrations by Manchester artist James Oconnell certainly caught my attention this week. How cool are they?! They'd make really great individual prints, and are a brilliant example of how you can use simple lines and colours effectively. See more from this project here.

Best to keep things brief today, as most people's attention will be on enjoying Easter weekend with family, getting out for an early run or cycle, or grabbing drinks with friends. The only certainty for me is that I'll have both chocolate and beer in the mix. And don't get my started with the DIY...Do you have any plans for the looooong weekend? Happy Easter!
