Presenting Chisel, a new icon set by yours truly for the most awesome @fontawesome.com! When @shkspr.bsky.social & @jabron.us asked if I could pack in as much personality as possible, it was game on. And of course, the moment I got full creative freedom, creative block entered the chat. Classic!

Chisel is one of the coolest and most unique icon sets I’ve ever seen. @laurarbee.bsky.social knocked it out of the park for us (as usual)! Every @fontawesome.com subscriber will get v7 and its core improvements, but only folks with Pro+ get Chisel, Notdog, Jelly, and the rest of the new packs!

Working on an 'icons' icon today and I'm thoroughly bamboozled. A star? A collection of abstract shapes? A swapping gesture? A smiley works so well for emojis but what is the icon version?

Just threw on a cap before stepping out for a dog walk then realised I am embarrassingly on brand. Yes I am in fact wearing a duck cap AND a goose tshirt that reads ‘save the arts fuck the tories’ 🙃 quack! honk!

Dogs truly are the greatest gift. I’m just sat working away until I feel something and notice my dog has stuck his nose in my trouser pocket where earlier had a biscuit for him. Lives for snacks! The cutest bean!

Most essential part of being an icon designer? Knowing when to stop and take a nap! You heard it here first. My icons are powered by strategic procrastination and immaculate vibes ✨😴

Renovation based decisions will be the death of me. The way choosing between 5 shades of off white or god forbid choosing a tile will send my brain into the most confused state for days at a time. Why is it like this?!

Last night I fell asleep glasses on and kindle page turner in my hand. Not sure when I fell asleep but I woke up at 1am unsure where I was, who I was and what year it was! Oh the first week back in January will get ya! 🙃
