Jolby
Josh Kenyon and Colby Nichols are the dynamic duo behind Portland based illustration and design studio Jolby. Inspired by elements found in nature and the sea, the twosome collaborate on everything from original artwork, patterns, album covers, and t-shirts.
Jolby’s work is employs cheerful colors, intricate patterns, and playful images and themes. They have a collection of wonderful prints at their shop entitled “From Portland With Love,” featuring imagery that remind me of one of my favorite cities.
