Tape Art

Max Zorn constructs unbelievably realistic portrait with only brown packing tape and a scalpel! Amazing.

ESPO

In a subtle misappropriation of a municipal program run by the city of Los Angeles to combat graffiti, in which concerned citizens are given permission to paint over offending graffiti, artist Steve Powers used his residency in Nike's Blue House to initiate his own plan of buffing out bad graffiti in ways that discreetly spelled out his own tag, ESPO.

Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf!

Been doing some rough type sketching today. 'Who's afraid of the big bad wolf' is a name Im going to be using for a possible t-shirt design. I just wanted to experiment with different letterforms and been getting a lot of inspiration from a new book that I bought by Steven Heller and Lita Talarico called 'Typographic Sketch Book'. Will be posting the final design of the finished t-shirt very soon.

Bristol Graffiti

Been taking a lot of photographs in the past few weeks of Bristol based street-art for a personal photographic book. The photographs will show a documentation of how graffiti culture is continually changing and how its become such a diverse city turning bleak streets into colourful walls. The photograph below did make me laugh though.

Mechanical Letterforms

Still cant quite get my eyes around how Riccardo Sabatini created these wonderful letters. MEKKANIKA is a font composed of illustrated machines. Very technical and unique inspired by the Transformers. You can see the entire alphabet on Behance.
