Michael Kutsche

Michael Kutsche creates work very similar to what I would like to do. Most of it is kind of sci-fi-ish or just weird, while other pieces are humorous and cartoonish to some degree. The delivery of color is fantastic, it's all very vivid however in many of his pieces he focuses on the use of one vivid color. I find more and more that I am drawn to strange and vivid pieces. I also find that my definitions for terms like vivid are expanded all the time, for example a piece that is black and white can still be vivid but could also be described as dramatic as well. It's interesting to me how my mind continues to reshape and reform what I thought I knew, though it seems the more I learn from other artists the less I am sure of myself.

Interesting Typography

This design combines 2 different aspects together. It gives kind of a sense of David Carson with the use of typography and "legibility". The way the composition was split in half is an interesting way to break it up. The left half plays with font and type while the right half plays more with textures.

Hey guys, this is an image for subaru. Its an advertisment for its' cars' traction. Obviously this is not real, but it is hard to tell that the image was digitally altered to give the cars the upside down look. I like this as a creative advertisment and grabs my attention a lot to look to try and find out how they did that.

here is the website I got this image off of.

Moon over Duncliffe by Annie Taylor


I love the colors in this painting and the starkness of the design.

Pop Art Zebra

I found this design really interesting because it is so simple because it uses only simple lines and shapes but it still get the point across. I also like it because it contradicts what a zebra is supposed to be. They are supposed to be only black and white but this one has all different colors in it instead.

24 Unique and Creative Advertisements

This was one of the examples of creative advertising techniques from all over the world.
I thought this was an interesting idea to catch the viewers eye because it is out of the ordinary. The use of color and texture in the ice make the slurpee being advertising more appealing. her expression is also comical which made this even more successful in my opinion.


So this magazine is great, I paint a lot, so it's a great reference and here is some art work that have made the cover...

New Money

Well these are some of the new designs for bills that want to be printed but won't be because they are not as great as the color we got now and the drastic change is to much. Even though they have a meaning behind them. The change between how the bills look is to great.

David Carson

This semester I have a lot of stuff reguarding typography.. and I noticed that an artist that keeps inspiring me.. is David Carson. I love the look and feel that is given off of his work. The Movement, and the balance with space and type. The usage of type and cropping out different areas.

picture convine with a graphic




I post these images because I really like the idea of convine with picture to a graphics. The artist convine these two togather very well, even makes me could not tell which one is graphic and which is the real picture.
