Blogroll Spotlights

You all have probably noticed that, since I redesigned my blog, I added a blogroll page at the top menubar. I think it's a fun way to show the blogs I'm enjoying these days. :) But I realized that the blogroll page doesn't really say anything much about what each of the blogs are about. So I thought I'd pick a few and tell you a little more about why I like them.

First up: Two, a diptych project by Beth Altrogge and Carissa Gallo, both great photographers whose work I really admire. Their project was partially what inspired me to try The Bird and the Plum with Jalynn.

If you check out this blog, you'll see some really creative photos & ideas.

Another blog on my blogroll list is Smrvl, a blog by graphic designer and artist David Somerville. It's fun to see what projects he's working on and neat to see other art and design he posts about. One of the descriptions on the site is "like a notebook," and I really enjoy that aspect of it. Most of the posts are pretty short and to the point - and looking through is like seeing a collection of artistic items.

If you check out this blog, you'll see a selection of art and design snippets.

One more before I go... Tullian Tchividjian's blog. It's another great blog from the Gospel Coalition (ah, how I would've loved to go to their conference!) and what I like most about this blog is how it's so gospel, gospel, gospel. Over and over again, in different ways and from different angles, the main thing on this blog is the "main thing" of Christianity: the gospel of Jesus Christ.

If you check out this blog, you'll see encouraging thoughts on the gospel.

I hope you all enjoy this little peek into a couple of my blogroll favorites. If you're looking for more, check out the other blogs I like. And I'd love to hear from you, too - what blogs do you like?
