Check out this work from Sam Soulek of Soulseven design studio and FAME retail branding agency in Minneapolis. Another vantage point of working at New American Paintings is that you learn to see certain patterns in different parts of the country, and there is always something very distinct about work that comes out of the midwest—a kind of hipster, Americana with a touch of humor.

(shameless plug: flip through the current midwestern edition of New American Paintings, #83 on newsstands now to see what I mean.)
