This video comes in as a breath of fresh air from legendary Saul Bass and his take on design. It has struck a cord with me, especially during the time when I’m trying to re-evaluate where my career is heading. Glad to hear that I’m not alone in this.
I took a little break from paper art and have started drawing patterns. I found the inspiration from a couple of beautiful wrapping papers I picked up at Kate’s Paperie.
Some of my collage iphone wallpapers that I developed for Poolga have been featured in PoolgaPack 3. Check them out.
The latest collage, this time on the theme “fishing for a dream”. I experimented with paper cutouts, acrylics, a little bit of decoupage (my latest obsession). I finally figured out how to shoot properly under a fluorescent light, so the colors are much warmer now.
Thanks to Uppercase Magazine for featuring me on their blog. If you’re not familiar with their magazine, you should check it out here
This is my second 3D collage titled The Red Door. It’s a progression from the Paper World collage that I made recently for Poolga. I’ve used a lot of bright colors, as well as sculpey to make some elements stand out, and give them more dimension. I am pleased with how they are turning out, and I’m contemplating doing a series on them.
My first attempt to use sculpey with collage.
This is the very first skate deck design that I have done. Having purchased a blank deck from the web, I was eager to customize it. First task was to paint it a smooth black, and put a few splashes of color. To stay true to the ongoing nature theme, I used a lot of photos of mushrooms, flowers, butterflies and ladybugs (most from flickr), with some hand drawn elements. Overall, I like how it has turned out and I will be working on the second one fairly soon. I have to admit, I’m not much of a skater myself, but hopefully some skater chicks would find this deck to their liking.
My two collage based iphone wallpapers got published on poolga.com. Check them out. I am very, very excited to be a part of talented poolga contributors. It’s an honor.
Work it… make it.. do it…makes us…harder, better, faster, stronger. This is a small homage to Daft Punk and their awesome music I have been listening to lately.
