The Earth Laughs In Flowers

This lovely Emerson quote was sketched up by This Paper Ship and then taken to final by Alyssa Nassner, with some lettering by Lindsay Nohl. This sets a record for the most people one one collaboration in the history of Ten Paces--4 illustrators, 1 piece. Well played, team!

In a bit of a departure from the original sketch, the fine folks at This Paper Ship (Joel and Ashley Selby) created this map of cat mysteries, inspired by Meera Lee Patel's energies diagram.

This Paper Ship
is an illustration, design, and photography studio in the Raleigh-Durham area of North Carolina, created by husband-and-wife team Joel and Ashley Selby. Having competed against each other to get BFAs in graphic design at Shepherd University, they eventually discovered they worked best as a team, and launched This Paper Ship in 2009 as a small Etsy shop. Their diverse work combines hand lettering, illustration, graphic design, photography, paper craft, and printmaking; their playful, colorful, and sophisticated work is influenced by Mid-Century illustration, Victorian typography and printing, Swiss design, and photography that tells a story. They maintain a strong commitment to traditional drafting and printing materials while shaping the trends of the contemporary art world. Check out their website!

Originally from the mystical land of Canadia, Marisa Seguin has been living in Milwaukee for the past four years where she recently graduated from college. When she is not illustrating, she enjoys baking obnoxiously coloured cakes, dancing around her living room, and spending inordinate amounts of time reading blogs. Check out more of Marisa's beautiful work here!
