neon epiphany

Day 6:

This is about when I throw up my hands, realize I’m not an artist, and go back to writing about KitKats, you know?

On the other hand, lettering is fun and I’m obviously out of practice. Be warned, you may be seeing twenty-four days straight of nothing but “Mrs. Edward Fairfax Rochester” over and over again.

Link-dumping in this entry, because for once I feel like I’m actually posting too much:

• Read the late anime director Satoshi Kon’s moving final words at Makiko Itoh: Not a Nameless Cat.
• Haunting color film footage from 1922 at Kodak: A Thousand Words.
• The Prokudin-Gorskii collection, which I wrote about in 2004, seems to be making the rounds again thanks to boston.com’s always-interesting The Big Picture.
