Last week I've created a small site, and I developed a simple effect to the main image. I can't show you the site right now, because it's still unpublished. Btw, the image was pretty nice and simple to do, so now I will show you how to create in 7 steps this simple image, just using some textures, colors and, of course, color dodge!
STEP 1 - FIRST RECTANGLE
The wallpaper of this week is an image created by Mike Speero, a graphic designer and digital artist from Gothenburg, Sweden. Mike has been featured in several galleries, exhibitions, books, interviews, magazines, blogs, websites, prints and the list goes on and on.

The book suggestion of this week is a very inspiring one for those in love with vintage typography, it's called Scripts: Elegant Lettering from Design's Golden Age. It's definitely a book for when you need some extra motivation and inspiration.
About the book
Elegant, quirky, fluid, brutish, ostentatious— a visual resource of cursives and other typefaces that resemble handwriting.
