• I fell in love with cinemagraphs. Well done ones are just like a perfect endless moment of beauty. I found a wonderful tutorial on how to make them (along with other cool stuff here) and someday I'd love to make my own. But until then here are some to enjoy... I picked these because they remind me of old glamour, of an Avedon-esque style. 





  • I stumbled across this the other day and I had to save/share it. The Library of Congress has WPA posters by the bunches (seriously, hundreds!) WPA is short for the Works Progress Administration and it was popular in the 30's during the New Deal. I was in awe of this collection... and Vintagraph is a good place if you want to buy replicas. 







  • Sometimes you find a cache of information that is just a straight goldmine of info. This is one those pages. 








    BOOM! :)
  • For having such an unassuming name, Joe White's logos are anything but. The quality of his lettering and the line work on his images are so beautiful and distinguished. 






  • The female form becomes such a strikingly romantic subject with the use of strong shape and color... Erte you sly fox you. 










  • It's been a while since I've updated anything on here and I have made a resolution to post a gangload of new inspirational things to keep my brain afloat. So on that note, I decided to start off on a mad dash of badassness with the one and only Bob Masse. Considered to be one of the pioneers of psychedelic art and heavily influenced by art nouveau, his posters show an incredible level sophistication all whilst being encapsulated in a medium that is forever cool... the concert poster. 




  • I have a love / hate relationship with mixed media. When it is good... it's almost like you can breathe along with it. Your eyes want to soak up every detail, and a desire to feel what the artist has captured. When it's bad... it is... eh... how you say... pretty much a bunch of shit on a canvas. Anyways without further adieu... Jose Rosmussi everyone.












  • Probably the single most informative website I've found on graphic design. Chronicling from 1450 - 2000, designishistory.com has extensive information highlighting various design movements, designers, and typographers from around the world. For example...
