We all need outlets
My one creative outlet while finishing gradschool is being part of the Y Collective - a collaborative team of artists/designers based in MI

eople in the limelight these days, so many from whom to choose as inspirations...some might even call them "heroes"...so it is all the more sorrowful to have lost an inspiration who set a positive example for the creative generations.
