Who Be He?They call him Phillip Retuta. He calls himself a visual & interactive designer, motion graphics artist, and illustrator — an all-around artist. He’s 29 years old, from Chicago, living in NYC, and has a lovely husky-lab mix named Nico. Currently employed as Senior Designer at a digital and social media firm. What’s All This Then? Well, it’s a fairly random tumblog of current and upcoming art endevours, photographs, comic sketches, creative philosophies, inspirations, and generally incomplete art projects. So yeah, it’s like a sketchbook.
