INSPIRATION :: Typography by Anthony Burrill

November 7, 2012November 7, 2012 Gina @ Oaxacaborn

I love these funny prints by Anthony Burrill. I say funny, because the sayings make me laugh — but these are seriously true, too. I think anyone who’s ever created something can relate. And if I owned an art gallery, I would hang these in the entry way.

I'm Gina Munsey, a Jesus-lover and a sojourner; a weaver of words, anchored in hope. I am Mexico-born, Eastern Europe-raised missionary kid who ended up being a Californian by way of Florida outside of Nashville, Tennessee -- but we landed here before The Great Migration. I live my days full of coffee and adventures while my 12-year-old learns Mandarin Chinese and Greek, my 3-year-old uses all the markers, and my artist-husband creates worlds from pixels and light. I'm an editor, a magazine contributor, and a writer who has only completed four chapters of my languishing manuscript. On any given day, you can find me in the middle of [home]school surrounded by stacks and stacks of books. Oh, and the name of this blog? Oaxaca -- wuh-HA-kuh -- is in Southern Mexico, where I was born! (See full bio).
