Ernie Schenck Likes Things Slow, And I Couldn't Agree More

Sunday's have become my day for catching up. It's a relaxed kind of day where I get to do whatever I want. Shut the cell phone down. Don't get the email. I might work...or maybe not...but it's all up to me.

One thing I love most of all is catching up on reading. And because I've been going so fast with little time to spare, a pile of design and art magazines have piled up next to my bed. So today was the day I actually got to read the December issue of Communication Arts and Ernie Schenck's article Slow Food, Slow Sex, and Now, Slow Thinking. (Yes...it would appear that my reading has been very slow indeed)

I couldn't agree more with Ernie about the process and taking the time to create insightful and well thought out work or design. Read his article here or check his blog.

  • David Black regarding an INK feature arts article:
    "I was just handed the most incredible magazine article that I think has ever been written about me. It is just fantastic and people are presenting me with copies of the magazine. Really beautifully written, really beautifully written and no one has ever put all the pieces together as nicely as you have. Thank you so much."
  • Re: Article on Slater Museum
    "Ok, Don't stand in a doorway when you read this as you may become hopelessly lodged... Hang on to your head, an ego boost attached... I love it Lisa. Spot on nicely done, access-able, significant and of a standard. I'm stoked, can't thank you enough, very happy and impressed." Jeff Lilly - INK Publishing
  • Designers Who Blog Says:
    "The Art and Design is written in a easy manner, centred on the design community, and points to discussions I can use...It’s my kind of blog as it keeps on giving."

  • The Art Guide
    "I am glad you are a perfectionist- You have given us a world-class site that will be an asset to The Guide as we move forward and expand." Matt Holmes, The Art Guide
  • Artist Julia Rogoff
    "I found Lisa Mikulski to be just the right resource at the right time: focused, professional, with a great eye for color and design, and with very fast turnaround time for getting images up on the web -- an artist's best friend and there when you need her! She's got a really good command of the two worlds we as artists now inhabit: the technical issues of cyberspace in today's market, combined with bottom line issues of artistic judgement. I highly recommend her as a great resource for web design, artistic and gallery management."
