He recommends great media. We recommend staring into those dreamy eyes for an extended period of time.

We not sure where he’s looking in this photo, but we like to think it’s down on the people he’s ahead of on this list.

They say a butterfly’s taste is 200 times stronger than the average human’s, so is her taste in Pantone.
