There’s been a lot of colorful geometry in the art world for the last couple of years, and I have never gotten enough of it. I don’t know what it is about bright colors and shapes that get me, but I’m got. Adding to my math/color fetish, the paintings of David O’Brien also incorporate organic forms and a strange swirling motion. I even got a little dizzy from looking at them for too long. I consider that a win with artwork though. If your work can make me vomit and fall down, you have attained artistic mastery. Which is why I’m never allowed in the Louvre again.

Oh, Tyler Lang, with your oh-so-buttery infographics, and your simply-sweet iconography. If I were one of those weirdos that is into some freaky shit, I would be into that freaky shit with your design work. Me and your design work would date for a while, and then, after we had slept together a few times, we would have an awkward conversation about the freaky shit that I wanted to do, and your design work would look me in the eyes and say “ok, just don’t tell anyone about it.” It would be weird and hot. That is if I was into stuff like that. Which I’m not.

Lou Romano: The Art of UP

Lou Romano
Having just seen the movie last night, how fitting is it that this morning I come across this great post from Lou Romano about all the work he did for Pixar’s new movie UP?  First, let me say, the movie is great. It’s more action-packed than I was expecting, but that’s not a bad thing at all. Go see it as soon as you can get the time. Try for the 3D version, too, because that adds to the magic. You should know that the Lou Romano post has some spoilers in it, especially because the trailers were nice and vague. Fine by me, I hate knowing everything that happens in the movie just from watching the trailer. All that being said, the Romano post does have some amazing art and insight into the creation of the movie, so the choice is yours whether or not to read it and spoil a little of the movie. I say it’s worth it, but I’m sitting on the other side of having seen it. Here’s a solution, why don’t you rush right out and see it now, then come back here and check out the artwork. Go ahead, I’ll wait.
