About the site
What people have said
"Combine web smarts, engaging conversation, and solid graphic design and you get Mark Bixby. It's easy to digest, and once one savors the content, the design is icing on the cake." -Cameron Moll
"I really like the warm colour palette on this blog and the minimal illustration style. The design and content of the blog also strike a perfect balance between playful and professional. Check the shadows underneath each entries photo header... that's attention to detail. Added it to my RSS list." -Jesse Bennett-Chamberlain
"Though the tagline for Mark Bixby's site is "creative juice", the site's overall feel reminds me of a wine label. And not a boxed wine, either--it's the fancy-schmancy kind that critics drool over and collectors covet. It's infused with earthy overtones and has a smooth finish. The "cosmopolitan simplicity" of Bixby's site is merely a ruse; I'm completely impressed by the visual know-how behind this site." -Narayan Nayar
"I find his work barely tolerable." -Carolyn Wood
