Chicken cop

Gabriel Garcia Rosell got in touch with me to see if I was interested in his work. The site is fairly new but already has a fine body of work represented in it. I love the first image in his portfolio (a larger version of the small cropped thumnail you see here) - Chicken Cop - is full of detail and vitality. I'm liking it.

Besides the Web 2.0 feature you'll find around up of the leading music download services, christmas ecommerce tips for your store and plenty of advanced web building advice.The mag also comes with a packed CD with three full products worth over GBP250.
