‘M. Peter Piening (1908 - 1977) born in Grabow, Germany, was a German-American graphic designer as well as professor of advertising design and director of the design centre at Syracuse University. Piening spent his early career freelancing as an illustrator and artist for various publishing companies, eventually settling in Paris to work for Conde-Nast's French publication of Vogue. In 1934 he moved to the United States to work in Conde-Nast's New York City office. For the next two decades, Piening worked for many important advertising agencies and magazine publishers, including the N. W. Ayer and J. Walker Thompson agencies and Life and Fortune magazines. As art director for Life in the 1930s and for Fortune in the 1940s, Piening completely redesigned the layout of each magazine. He also redesigned the layouts for thirty-four other major American magazines, including Town & Country and Cosmopolitan.’

Snowy kitten sketches today.

White snow, little silhouettes, tiny footprints. They wander through the snow and somehow leave a little happiness behind.

Hope this quiet scene brings you a little comfort.
