A Thank You from “The ‘Twitter Bird’ Artist”
I came across a nice article back in June about the Artist who created the now ubiquitous bird symbol for Twitter. Simon Oxley has created hundreds (if not thousands) of illustrations for iStockphoto.com. iStockphoto sells photography, illustrations and video for a fraction of the cost you would pay other stockhouses. Fortunately, for Simon, he got some media exposure when Twitter used one of his illustrations for their home page, then the Washington Post did an article on it. Read the interview and you will see a person’s artwork truly reflective of the type of person he is. I posted a nice comment on the article and Simon was even nice enough to e-mail and say “Thank You.”
