As the owner of two very naughty Dalmatians I can totally relate to this YouTube video. What beautiful characterful dogs, thanks for sharing Foodplot - you've made my day!

The Process Series by Matthew Shlian
I am in awe of Matthew Shlian's 'The Process Series'. Each of these geometric repeating artworks are created using over two dozen individual sheets of paper cut on a flat bed plotter cutter and stacked to reveal a series of squares in rotation, a grid of circles arrayed and a group of triangles extruded. If like me you are a tad obsessed with paper engineering I'd recommend that you keep a very close eye on Matt's personal blog.

Dog Silhouettes by Cat's Print Shop
Supply your photo, select your colours and Cat's Print Shop will turn your dog into a silhouette work of art. Cat may get more than she bargained for with my spotty Dalmatian dogs, they'd be the silhouette of Oscar in the second picture but they'd HAVE to have spots wouldn't they? Available to purchase for £35 each from Cat's 'Not on the High Street' shop.

Frederik Garcia Animal Head T-Shirts
Spanish designer Frederik Garcia's animal head t-shirts really do make me smile. These simple single colour silhouettes are hand printed using traditional screen printing methods. Each is numbered and limited in edition so you won't find every Tom, Dick and Harry wearing the same design. Available to purchase priced €19.90 from Frederik's online shop.

Eloquent Pro: Regular & Italic
I've just treated myself to both cuts of Eloquent Pro font today. No reason 'just because'. Font designer Jason Walcott has perfected his swashes, alternates and ligatures by updating this beautiful 1960's inspired font. For any typo freaks out there you can buy Eloquent Pro Regular & Eloquent Pro Italic online from Veer at £99 (plus vat). Wish I could afford more 'just because' days!
