Have you read The Anthropocene Reviewed by John Green? The book “reviews” facets of the human-centered planet on a five-star scale (in a way to show how reductive the scale is). He has a little review on the copyright page of the typeface Bembo.

I love when authors mess with the copyright page, especially knowing it’s only freaks like you and me who read them 😁

Full-time tomato season over here as well! I love the way you designed this piece and I hope you're getting to enjoy the tomatoes.

I really have grown to love the combination of drawing on paper and using digital color. It always feels like a much better balance.

I also have always loved the period of time when working on a project where it's been so planned that really I'm just going on auto-pilot. It's a bit different than repetitive but close. The passage you shared DID remind me of when I worked at a Mr.Gatti's Pizza Buffet and the first part of the morning was just weighing, rolling, and shaping pizza dough. It was extremely repetitive but we always worked with someone else and the repetitive nature brought about some great conversations.

Thank you for sharing as always!
