Bite Sized Snack: A New, Tasty Visual Blog

Inspiration   03.15.10   posted by Robert Newman

Bite Sized Snack is a new visual blog conceived and curated by illustrator and website organizer Robert Zimmerman. He describes the site as: "a daily serving of visual goodness, delivered by a team of trusted graphics professionals. One lite snack is offered each day, a snack that's easy to swallow and has been prepared with care to leave you feeling satisfied and inspired."

Zimmerman has collected a group of 30 "chefs," who include illustrators Lou Beach, Marc Burckhardt, David Goldin, Catherine Lazure, Ross MacDonald, Tim O'Brien, Laurie Rosenwald, and more (plus a few stray non-illustrators like myself). The chefs each post one interesting visual example and link a month, and the postings are randomly selected and rotated on to the site. The offerings range from illustration to photography to found objects, from the artwork of Harpo Marx and Mark Mothersbaugh to portraits made out of used joints.
