B Book

(...more photos of B Book over here...)

So after numerous revisions - way more than I was expecting of course - B Book is finally out in the world. So that is nice. I have had the idea for awhile now to put together a book with a selection of my three gazillion photographs so I am glad it is finally done and done.

It is meant to be a companion to "A Book" even though it is different in size and content. I am hoping to crank out a "C Book" to wrap the series - so much for my ambition of getting through the whole alphabet! But I think an A, B and C book would be nice. I might make the next book different again in format and maybe have it contain just some little drawings. That would be cool I think. So "A" would be small, pocket-sized, a little collection of flotsam, and the "B" as a photo selection and the "C" drawing and some photoshop tomfoolery. Sound good to me! Maybe I can bundle them all together and give them away as a package. Anyway - ideas, ideas...Oh - and you can get it here (but don't worry - I won't be sad if you don't!)...

I am also still plugging away at revamping my portfolio site. I think it is almost there thank god. And I have a couple more mugs that I think I will show-off pretty soon - I just have to do a few little changes and then get some good photographs.

Thinking about websites - Lena Corwin linked to a really nice and simple site with lots of fun books on it the other day - Marcus Oakley's site. Sorry no original links - next time I promise!!

Aack!

Things have been insanely busy!! A million people have come into town all at the same time - and I am juggling a few important projects - hopefully stuff to show soon! I will be back as soon as I can.

Hope you are having a good week!

Va Va Voom!

Learn all your sexy moves from Bridget Bardot (who else??). Hope you are having or had a nice Love day. Even if it was bittersweet or just the boring usual. I got some pretty flowers lucky me. I will try to take a photo for some show and tell next post.

Okay - Bye!

Hmmmm...

Sorry for the slow posts this last week or so! Real life (outside of the computer) seems to be taking over a little bit more than usual these days. There are so many things I need to get off my plate. I hope I can do it all by the end of the month!

This weekend we did a little gallery hop with an old friend I hadn't seen in a long time - so that was really fun. Here are a few pictures above. I will upload more to flickr as soon as I have the chance. These photos were taken at the Marianne Boesky Gallery exhibition "The Masked Portrait", the Zach Feur Gallery and Gagosian Gallery which was hosting the (RED) Art Auction.

I promise I will try to get in a couple more posts before the week is through...

Talk soon!

Straight Up Good Graphic Design

(...click to enlarge...)

It is so nice to see this kind of work. Straight up good interesting graphic design. So refreshing even though it is 50 odd years out of date... All images are from here and there looks like there are other interesting things to browse through here...

Happy Thursday in 5 minutes!

Bye!

Just a Few Links and Some Pretty Pictures

I found these photos and some other beautiful and interesting shots from here...

I am leaving this posting business a bit late for a Monday night - so here are just a few links to pass along. I hope your week is looking like it will be a good one ! Talk to you again soon...

...more amazing vintage Home & Garden covers!...
...a funny little book for free...
...ANOTHER great designer from the Design Academy Eindhoven - can you believe it?? Look at the alumni list on their wiki page - I am such a big fan of so many of those designers. So - for the record - if you are in any way interested in industrial deign - this is the school you should go to!! (even if it is an exchange)...
...for design (nerds?) Stefan Sameister at Deitch Projects and one of the most intriguing/inspiring logos I have ever seen...
...I liked looking through the photos of this illustrator (via simply photo)...

O.K. - Bye!
