The Puzzling Beast

stateofthings — Fri, 29 Jul 2011 10:31:21 GMT

Ah, a new picture! Been working on it on and off for a week or so, had to wrap it up at some point. Are any of my made-up symbols “real”? Would be interesting, let me know!

Meine Bilder jetzt auch in Deutschland

stateofthings — Wed, 20 Jul 2011 08:18:49 GMT

Internetshopping in den USA kann kompliziert sein. Wunderbare Vielfalt, niedriger Dollarkurs auf der einen, aber dann eventuell der quälende Gang zum Zollamt und inkompatible Zahlungsverfahren (nur mit Kreditkarte??) auf der anderen Seite. Deswegen gibt es nun meinen Shop bei Arflakes. Dort gibt es von der Postkarte bis zum hochwertigen Kunstdruck alles von der hiesigen vertrauten Hausmarke. Aus Deutschland für Deutschland, mitsamt kostengünstigem Versand, Bezahlung per guter alter Überweisung und garantiert keinem Gang zum Zollamt. Fehlt noch ein Print, den du gerne hättest? Einfach Kommentar hinterlassen oder bei Facebook melden. Viel Spass damit!

Grovemade bamboo iPhone case

stateofthings — Fri, 15 Apr 2011 01:51:39 GMT

Today I got my sample of my laser engraved bamboo iphone case I made for grovemade. It looks extremely cool in real life, it smells like a bamboo forest, and it comes in a bamboo frame (a by-product of the making of the case), which you can use for your own pictures later. Now I just need a flippin’ iphone to use it myself! You can get the case here

(Also, they’re all hand made by a bunch of people in Portland, Oregon. Everything is in place. It’s great. They do other stuff too. Check them out, seriously.)

Kick Ass Annie

stateofthings — Thu, 07 Apr 2011 20:29:45 GMT

Koyama Press is a Toronto-based publisher of comics, graphic novels and zines, among other things. Once in a while artists are encouraged to reinterpret the “Kick-ass Annie” logo in their own style. (This is my take, FYI) You can check out previous renditions on their Flickr set. Enjoy!

RUN

stateofthings — Mon, 04 Apr 2011 18:17:41 GMT

This is kind of a freestyle drawing. It started with the phrase “RUN, it’s HUMANS!”. At first I just wanted to make a typographic t-shirt with the sentence (Actually, I still might.), but couldn’t come up with a satisfactory design. After playing around with the type and some pictograms I figured I should tackle the idea with my usual approach. After taking it to Photoshop, doodling, adding, removing and refining I came up with what you can see above. Enjoy! It’s also available on Society6.

Zeitverflug

stateofthings — Sun, 27 Mar 2011 22:56:39 GMT

In my free time I sometimes tinker with vectors. They’re cool because combined with a grid they enable me to create artwork just by clicking with the mouse. That’s good when I can’t hold a pen in my hand. Last week, I made a series of prints using the Australian States as a theme. Yesterday I wrapped up the series with the Australian Capital Territory, using the wombat as a mascot. On Society6, I gave my vector work its own studio: Zeitverflug.

The Hypnowl Consultant

stateofthings — Mon, 14 Mar 2011 22:54:10 GMT

People love Owls, and boy am I fascinated with them since one them big headed, soundlessly-flying winged critters almost crashed head-on into my face one night in our garden. Watch out for more Hypnowl-craze in the next days. This one will be going to the Art for Japan auction later this month. Stay tuned for that as well!
