“Swords of the Sea II” by Amanda McCorkle
“Swords of the Sea II” is a collection of four prints created from paintings on celluloid by Providence’s Amanda McCorkle. The base of the artwork has been printed on an archival 290 gsm bamboo-based printmaking paper. The three layers of the artwork containing sea creatures have been printed on clear archival film, allowing them to be layed over the base artwork.

YOU’RE THE GREAT WEREWOLF, CHARLIE BROWN
Anamanaguchi Canada tour poster (by cory schmitz)
Collaboration with Maré Odomo.
‘Roly poly’, designed by the Design Incubation Centre at the National University of Singapore, are a pair of egg-like objects that mirror each other’s movements, even when physically separated. Two people thus can sense each other’s presence despite distances across the world: a tap of one half will create a simultaneous reaction in the other.
Part of the “Talk To Me” exhibit at MoMa, running until November 7, 2011. Filed under #!@&%ineedatimemachine.
Zion National Park, home of Angels Landing.
The above poster was created by the Works Progress Administration during the New Deal to publicize the great public spaces around the United States. During its short tenure, the WPA created a number of posters to promote travel, public health, art, education, and citizenry. They are a beautiful view into the graphic design and spirit of the time, and over 100 are available for purchase at Vintagraph.
taking a break from the sea of commission work i’m doing to make an adventure time gif.
a few days ago adam muto posted a tweet with this killer pizza eyes gif in it (which was based on this drawing by pen ward) and i felt completely obligated to redo it myself.
Tele-Present Water, by David Bowen.
This installation draws information from the intensity and movement of the water in a remote location. Wave data is being collected in real-time from National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration data buoy Station 46246 (49°59’7” N 145°5’20” W) on the Pacific Ocean. The wave intensity and frequency is scaled and transferred to the mechanical grid structure installed at The National Museum in Wroclaw, Poland. The result was a simulation of the physical effects caused by the movement of water from this distant location.

Owen Gatley’s “Map of the World”
“They say it’s 101 degrees today. Fine then, I’m drinking coffee and rolling cigarettes and looking out at the hot baked street and a lady just walked by wiggling it in tight white pants, and we are not dead yet.”
