Will “Mr. Fancy Pants” Bryant is a freelance designer and member of the Austin based collective Public School. He makes all manner of fun drawings, collages, and designs with clients such as Polyphonic Spree, Kitsune Noir, and Nike.

I started to notice Will’s work through mentions by Edition 3 artist, Kate Bingaman-Burt, who was one of Will’s professors at Mississippi State University, and when I saw this design, I was hooked. I think of Will as part of a new generation of intelligent, happy, internet-savvy, bootstrapping young designers and illustrators who make work because they want to and love to and need to, regardless of commercial purpose. His energy and attitude is infectious and inspiring.
