Black and White Magazine Print

I love having a flick through new music and design mags. It's a personal treat that I don't mind forking out a few quid on rather than just turning to their blogs or online mags. It feels old school and authentic. Before I start sounding like an old fogey saying "things were better in the old days" I'll get on with the design aspect of this article.

I love anime and any kind of animation art which is why the article below caught my eye. The Cap'tain art on the right looks like it should be on a printed tee for a skate clothing brand. The use of shading has created imagery within blocks of black colour, making the ACRESS logo on the left readable and artistic in the way it bleeds onto the page.

  

The artist behind this maginificent inspiring print work is Pablo Abad. I'm sure he won't mind a little plug to his portfolio which can be found at Pablo Abad's Website.

Any suggestions for works like this would be greatly appreciated. I love this artwork in particular. Expect to see more catching pieces of graffiti/ anime on Wednesday. Truly inspiring design!

Tuesday is Movie Day

I'm thinking that Tuesday is the day that we begin sharing inspirational and icononic movie posters by renowned artists. This week's favourite is by the world class Drew Struzan, a great inspiration to print artists everywhere.

His authentic hand painted movie posters have withstood the tests of time and still inspire print artists today looking to compete in the digital age. Today's favourite is from the classic movie Bladerunner.

More incredible works from his portfolio can be found at http://www.drewstruzan.com/
