Do you know Colin Johnson?

We didn’t – before we saw his work on Thumbtack Press.  And when we did, we kinda went gaga.

That’s how Blue Q works.  Happy Accidents…..a quote from Mitch Nash, Blue Q’s Art Director.  And when New Product Development seeks out new designers, new artists – we surf the web, visit our regular blogs and websites that show great work…. We’re routinely plowing through volumes of graphic books, magazines, tomes - Mitch  is an avid reader of everything.  There’s always something new to research, find out more about, follow up from a snippet under a photograph that intrigues us.

And that’s how it was with Colin.  We told him that we adored his piece, Flotsam and Jetsam.  And would he want to make a bag with us?

Guess what he said?

Oh!  And we did a new piece with him now available too.  

These are beautiful bags indeed.  Am I allowed to say that?
