No, this is not about a mosaic picture of a smoker I is about a smoker that does mosaics. Cliff Maynard has some amazing mosaics made out of reach papers or in simple terms paper from when you smoke. Be sure to take a close look.

Last spring I was looking at new book bags and I searched everywhere for the right style and design. I wanted something that was "me". I ended up buying this Lucha Libre handmade book bag.

With the classics and a more sophistic way try one of these cutting boards.

What Type Of Artist?
January 21, 2011
Today, I am still inspired by the Dave Matthews Band recording of Big Whiskey and the Groo Grux King. The entire album art has been drawn by Dave Matthews himself.
About a a year a go I went out and bought the CD because I love the music and after that I fell in love with the artwork. Later on I wanted some records to frame. Somehow I was lead back to Big Whiskey and the Groo Grux King.

Where You From?

During the 60's places such as Las Vegas were known for their iconic sign as you enter the city. Today everyone parodies it. Also many other places were having marquee signs such as this to attract visitors.
Today, ran across someone that redesigned them. Holly Wales takes the image and breaks it down to three colors and turns it into a risograph.
- Risograph is a high-speed digital printing system manufactured by the Riso Kagaku Corporation and designed mainly for high-volume photocopying and printing.

Anyone can inspire anyone else. No matter what it is. Take a look at Teodoru Badiu.
The Painted Horse
Real or Fake
January 18, 2011
For the most part I like graphic design. It is not that bad. I have issues with printing sometimes. I rather have a real printing press or something comparable rather than an inkjet printer. I want real quality. This is what you will see today.

One Point Oh A Creative Design Studio has a nice portfolio on the website if you care to take a look as they are today's inspiration. I can say that I have enjoyed browsing through some of the works they have done for clients including Coke.
They have done some illustration for a show titled: The Hairy Bikers Mums Know Best. This looks so real and lifelike to me even though I know it is an illustration and not the real thing.
Who Are You?

Sorry I did not post yesterday. I was in so much pain yesterday I went to the in/out doctor place to get it checked out. I still got the pain but it should get better with the medication.
This one is an oldie but a goodie. How many of us remember Hanna-Barbara? Some of you may be scratching your head and asking who or what is that. Hanna-Barbara is a cartoon company from the late 50s that eventually became Cartoon Network in the early 90s.
A list of notable productions can be seen here. I hope you have a fun time traveling down memory lane.
It is always hard to come up with a new idea to market it something that people will want to watch. This must be why they stood the test of time and even made a few movies and spin off of their productions. In art it is always starts with an idea or a concept; that little doodle on the page. Think of how many spin-offs or spoofs they had throughout the years. This must mean they did something right along the way.
Comment and let me know what your favorite Hanna-Barbara production was and why.
Next time you see Birdman tell him I said "Hello".

Horrifying

All I can say is that I can not do justice to this wonderful artist. He will scare you but gross you out at the same time. Take a look at Matthias Seifarth. Be sure to comment and let me know if his portfolio inspires you.

Remember the 90s
January 12, 2011
If you care to check out some illustrations that are so fresh you should consider French designer CUYPI . This artist has a flare for the 90s. Yes, that decade is now coming back in style by many.
CUYPI has a flair for the high gloss and you only though that could be done in paint. You may have to be with the "in-crowd" to understand some of these piece of art.

This piece screams touch me! It looks so squeaky clean like the sound of you finger against a balloon.
