Ian Nagy: Tasty Art

It’s the 7th season of ARTifacts, and Marisa interviews artist and illustrator Ian Nagy. Encouraged by his artist mother, Ian grew up drawing and constantly adding to his “picture pile.” His career took off when he joined Zingerman’s, a specialty food company known for its focus on local ingredients located in Ann Arbor, MI. Through his illustrations for their deli, bakery, and creamery, Ian has helped shape Zingerman’s unique visual style. He shares insight into his creative process from drawing menu items and logos to designing bags, catalogues, and gift boxes. With more than 30 years as a staff illustrator, Ian continues to create art that is fun, approachable, and delicious.
