Pac23

Once again scrolling through the endless internet design websites I have stumbled across an illustrator who covers a wide variety of designs.

Pac23 or Francisco Perez is an illustrator from Miami, Florida. Pac23 covers such a wide variety of different styles from simple vector illustrations, more detailed computer designs and also sketches. The work he produces is at such high standard because he considers even the smallest details, this is why his work has been covered in magazines and even used for tutorials.

It's the use of colour within his designs that make them stand out. He manages to use a variety of tones and shades that give his illustrations that element of realism and brings them to life. Pac23 has even coloured in images for other artists (these are shown on his website)

Here are some examples of his work. Visit his website to see the rest of his work.

 

Up-to-date

I am currently very busy with work and other things. So producing any of the ideas floating round my head, or searching the internet for inspirational designs seems to have been pushed on to the back-burner at the moment. Hopefully, it won't be too long before I find some spare time to start producing my own designs again.

You can still go and look at my current work at Society6 website. If you follow the link, you also get free shipping on any of my designs.

Tang Yau Hoong

Tang Yau Hoong is a Visual Artist/Graphic Designer.

They produce such a wide variety of work, from Simple vector illustrations to complex thought provoking images. This wide variety of work has help Tang to attract attention from all over the globe. They've had work commissioned for New Scientist, The Observer and EasyJet Traveller.

Here are a few examples:

 Tang likes to produce work that uses negative space, this is a very clever use of empty space and brings a focused area to the design.

 Tang produces very clever designs that bring together everyday situations that resemble one another.

 I particularly like this 'Hanging City' piece and I have recently bought this on a tshirt from 'Threadless'.

Tang also has a arrange of limited edition art prints for sale.

Polaroids

I have recently found some of my old Polaroid photographs. Even though you can still get the same look these days with an app. I do like how the old camera photos turn out. They always turn out with slight imperfections, as you can see on the Ritz photo at the top and bottom. There is a slight mark, but these add to the photos characteristics.

I have added these to my Society 6 page. So feel free to check out these photos on tees and phone covers.

Pepsi

I know I have not blogged for a while, due to the amount of work recently. I have recently found this design showing different characters made from the Pepsi logo and thought it was very clear.

Wall Murals

This has defiantly been a busy time for myself, helping students to finish off any outstanding projects and preparing for their final exhibition.

Rather that produce the standard final exhibition of 'here is your section, mount your work' we are going to try and be more creative, seen as though we are a GRAPHIC DESIGN course.

We have decided to produce a collective wall montage/mural, so I have been looking for some interesting/inspiring pieces that might help the students.

Even though our theme will be the Olympics, here are some general wall murals that I have found.

Maneki Neko

Just finished a new illustration 'Maneki Neko'. Its for sale as an Art print, Tshirt, Phone case, etc on Society6. Check out the rest of my designs whilst your there.

Thanks.

Josip Kelava

Whilst browsing through this months Advanced Photoshop Magazine (#95), I came across Josip Kelava a Croatian born Melbourne based designer. His work really stood out to me with his bold use of type and imagery, so I thought I would check out his website.

Josip graduated form the University of Swinburne Faculty of Design and has been driven by something one of his lecturers told him.

"The worst thing a designer can do is not get noticed."

This helped Josip to realise that its not always about the outcome of a design, but to make a piece look good and evoke an emotional response from the viewer. This has driven him to produce some visually inspiring pieces of design work.

Josip may produce images that use bold shapes and block colours, but he also considers the small intricate details. This makes all the difference between producing good designs and those designs that make you take notice.

Here are a few more examples of his work. I especially like the Hulk, Narnia and Manifesto designs.
Check out his website for other pieces of design work.

Sergey Sbss

During my endless searching of the internet for any creative design work, I've stumbled across Sergey Sbss a Graphic artist from Moscow, Russia. Sergey's bright angular shapes within his artwork help to create a very unique style.

 Sergey's work has been published in a variety of different magazines, etc. For example the illustration to the right was printed in the Computer Arts Magazine #138 July 2010.

Looking through his website and the designs that he has produced. He seems to enjoy producing work for a variety of different medias i.e. Clothing, Bags, Toys and Skate-decks. This allows his work to be seen by a wider audience and therefore allowing them to see what he is capable of producing.




Here are a few other examples of Sergey's work:

 Examples of his clothing designs.

 An example of his artwork produced on a Kidrobot Dunny toy.

 Some Bodhi Wolk examples.

Finally, some snowboard designs.
