I need to really post on tumblr more often, but here's some more recent art I've made!
I absolutely love the Vegas Stakes stream, and Mr. Green character lol. Would have loved if Jerma could have actually done a casino stream, that would have been killer.
Anywho, this was a ton of fun to make and I liked the whole process. I took a lot of inspiration from old souvenir tshirts, and wanted to give it that same vibe. Almost went with "I lost it all at Mr. Green's casino and all I got was this lousy tshirt", but decided to go with his little catchphrase instead. (Still might do something with the other style of phrase tho?)
Frost* (sorry trees) comprehensively documents the work of award-winning designer, Vince Frost* at an iconic time in his career and life, between 1992 and 2006. Designed by Vince and Ant Donovan and written in collaboration with Lakshmi Bhaskaran, the seminal design tome provides 500 pages of ideas and inspiration.
Presenting a complete overview of the Vince’s life and career, the book explains his philosophy and approach from this period. It includes hundreds of photographs from Vince’s personal collection, presented in contrast to design projects. (sorry trees) also tells the story of Vince’s own life - from how growing up in Canada laid the foundations for Vince's bold aesthetic and subsequent rise through the London design scene, to the nomadic lifestyle that has seen him live in 44 houses in 40 years. It is this existence that enables Vince to cross traditional boundaries - working on anything from postage stamps to the built environment.
Was encouraged by Tulli to post some of my original work here today for portfolio day. Besides GG20s, I'm also developing a cyberpunk story about a rookie cyborg boxer in an alternate 2001 Los Angeles in the style of late-90s anime.
I also have a side project, developing a video game idea on exploring the Pacific ocean and speculative marine sciences.
Also some posters I've done, including a piece I made for The Lovers.
To keep her creative juices flowing over summer, Melissa, our graphic design blogger, conceived of a series of blog posts she can write about and then wrote the first one about bullet journaling. Here she shares her materials and methods! #MarywoodArt
Intro
For the next few blog posts of mine, I figured it might be fun to give myself some design projects to work on over the summer to keep my creative juices flowing. For this first post in what I’m calling my Summer Design Series, I’ve been working on something relaxing, something that I’ve been doing since high school: bullet journaling and designing my own agenda book pages.
About Bullet…
"I wish I could make a game but get other people to do all the art and writing and programming and" you literally can. It's called being the project manager, and all you have to do to get this job is be willing to write all the emails, make all the phone calls, set up and moderate all the group chats, schedule and lead all the meetings, monitor and follow up on all the deadlines, coordinate with all relevant third parties, and personally chase down the answer to every question that anyone might conceivably ask about anything. If that sounds like your idea of a good time, there are any number of projects that would love to have you on board.
Though their initial mutations were the result of long term nuclear war, it's actually an intense culture of propaganda and strictly enforced conformity policies that have kept the Daleks in their current state. Every Dalek undergoes surgery just after birth; not to mitigate the effects of irradiation, but to rid them of whatever is legally considered "imperfections to the Dalek form" (usually throwbacks to a humanoid body plan, such as teeth and hands) and physically ready them for their casing. Additional surgeries must occur throughout a Dalek's life to prevent them from becoming "rooted" - a painful, often fatal scenario in which the Dalek overgrows their own shell and cannot be safely removed.
Not only does their homogeneity serve to reinforce their fervent belief in genetic superiority, but the resulting chronic health issues prevent insurrection; a Dalek's fear of losing access to regular healthcare colors much of their judgement, and most attempts at dissent end as soon as their painkillers run dry.
