CRAFT

I scored the most incredible set of books from Goodwill, only $1 each! I'm in the process of using them for a photo project. I'll post the progress of that later. For now enjoy these retro designs.

It is Friday and I am happy. Also Charles Spearin from Do Make Say Think is a genius. I was lucky enough to see his Happiness Project with Broken Social Scene. Lets just say jaws were dropping.

ILLUSTRATION

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------





Charley Harper is one of my all time favorite illustrators. By combining his beliefs of minimalism and nature, he became the cubist Audubon - removing all the excess and in so finding harmony.

He said about his own work: "I regard the picture as an ecosystem in which all elements are interrelated, interdependent, perfectly balanced, without trimming un-utilized parts; and herein lies the lure of painting; in a world of chaos, the picture is one small rectangle in which the artist can created an ordered universe."

You have to love a man with skills and principles to back it up.

FILM & CRAFT

I keep making doodles and wanting to share them. So bare with me on this... In an effort to keep the creativity churning in my brain, I've started this little visual diary. It's not much yet, but the pages sure are filling up fast. See more here!
