there is a lot of coverage available for this designer of a recent US postal stamp and the well-known Field Notes notebooks. He also has a significant book published about his work. I had no trouble finding in-depth sources (coverage links: https://www.wired.com/2016/02/aaron-draplin-wrote-a-book/ Wired, https://www.designweek.co.uk/issues/16-22-may-2016/aaron-draplin-why-designers-need-thick-lines-in-their-lives/ Design Week, https://altdaily.com/the-man-who-made-us-fall-in-love-with-taking-notes-aaron-draplin-is-coming-to-hampton-roads-in-april/ Alt Daily  https://www.adweek.com/creativity/if-you-loved-aaron-draplins-logo-tutorial-heres-more-his-design-wisdom-162013/ Adweek, the https://designobserver.com/feature/aaron-draplin/37118 Design Observer, the https://missoulian.com/entertainment/books/review-pretty-much-everything-covers-it-all-for-graphic-designer/article_25c4f7bd-15d7-5f76-8894-86427449b62c.html Missoulian, the https://www.theglobeandmail.com/life/the-catalysts/aaron-james-draplin-is-the-poster-boy-for-timeless-design/article11639422/ Globe and Mail) and the https://www.nytimes.com/2015/08/07/fashion/mens-style/a-design-gurus-work-lair.html New York Times.
