He began drawing cartoons in his teens, later popularized on the back of business cards, and today MacLeod's work hangs in the collections of major corporations around the world. gapingvoid ltd works with companies helping them define and articulate cultures, transform work spaces, and create marketing campaigns. *

*Jessica Hagy is best known for her Webby award-winning blog, Indexed. Her style of visual storytelling, popularized on index cards, allows readers to draw their own conclusions: “Her images don’t always tell us what to think; quite often, they elegantly offer us ideas to think about.” *Hagy has been prolifically illustrating, consulting, and speaking at events since 2006. Her commissioned work frequently appears in various web formats, galleries, books, magazines, newspapers, television outlets, and advertising campaigns. She mixes both quantitative and qualitative data with humor, insight, and simple visuals to make even the most complex concepts immediately accessible and relevant.
