I've just come across the fabulous retro style work of Esther Aarts, a dutch (Nijmegen) based  illustrator, designer and typographer.

Not everybody hit's the spot for me when it comes to this 50's/60's  retro look, it's a hard act to pull off – I've posted before about some of my favourites like Lord Dunsby and Mads Berg

Esther has also 'nailed it' as they say on 'X-factor' (apparently). Her illustrations and typography have a wonderful old world, home made charm that really appeal. Just the right amount of texture, and a colour palette that is spot on. Of course, that's probably because she makes them on the latest technology, her iPad… (see below). Copacetic.
