Sparked is a new art and design collective directed by Geoffry Gertz collaborating with artists and illustrators to infuse their unique concepts and visions into well crafted ‘art products’. The debut Artist Series features the work of award winning illustrator and New York Times contributor Igor Kopelnitsky. Gertz created the boxed letterpress card set of eight humorous original designs crafted from Crane’s Lettra Letterpress re-purposed cotton paper. Each of Kopelnitsky’s designs are an unique and amusing commentary on issues ranging from energy independence to the evolution debate with themes and titles including Play Date With The Devil, Bright Idea, Heavy Thoughts, Don’t Be Shy, Balancing Act, Peace Out, Drill Baby Drill, and So Evolved.

It’s so easy to lose water bottles, but if you have one as nice as these KOR Vida ‘hydration vessels,’ you might be extra vigilant about not leaving it at yoga or the co-op check-out counter.
