Inspiration: Felton

Last night I got to hear one of my biggest design heroes speak, right here, in OKC.

Nicholas Felton is most famous for his info-graphic design - including annual reports detailing every little bit of his life down to how many beers he drank in a year. Jeremy actually pointed me to his site after he made an appearance in his RSS feeds. I was beyond impressed and quickly became obsessed.

He travels, documents and designs with passion (and systems and process) and has seemed to make quite a name for himself doing what he loves. His focus and creativity (born from limitations) inspires me.

Jeremy actually purchased his 2006 and 2007 reports for me when we first started dating. I took them to his talk but was too shy to have him sign them. (I also thought it might interfere with the design.)
