Hugh Syme
Graphic artist and cover designer for Rush (amongst others). I think he's been doing Rush's artwork since the early 1970's. Following his work has helped me see how the integration of collateral is a significantly powerful tool. I always look forward to seeing his next project, especially when it's a Rush album.

Gary Dorsey
I used to be an acquaintance of Gary's when I lived in East Texas. I've eaten dinner with his family and I have often taken notes from his work to inform my own. He's really an overall nice guy and back in the day, I kept finding myself hired to manage projects he wisely abandoned. I just had a hard time filling his shoes. Every few years, Gary releases a major update to his site which always makes me envious.

Paul Millins
I'm lucky enough to be friends with this man. He's probably the most brilliant landscape photographer I've ever known and he is the most humble artist. Paul is quietly confident, hard-working but never stupidly vain. A rarity that's always refreshing.

Von Glitschka
Followed this guys work for years. I found his work on the Howdesign.com forum. He is an illustrator whose reminders consistently hammer a good creative process. His advocacy for hand-drawing any proto-design is his strength and certainly the reminder I always need. My default tends to live and stew inside my head. His expressions with texture and vector line work have totally shaped my understanding of what excellence can and should be.

Paul Lee
I found Paul Lee quite by accident via Fudgegraphics.com (a site well worth following). His inspirational work has really forced me to think well outside my common framework. Beautiful blends, textures and elegant simplicity. I'd like to be as talented as he is when I grow up.
