I stumbled upon this amazing artwork by Nick Gentry. It really caught my attention, because he is using mixed paint and computer disks on wood as a medium. He is relating his art to technology, without actually using technology. I love the fact that it looks like a collage, but the piece as a whole looks like a portrait.

The 5 stages of your creative process

I found this on the Print magazine website. I thought it was a really nice way to illustrate the way we move through our own creative processes.

I found these "Honest Logos" on stumble upon, by artist Viktor H. His concept is to reveal the actual content of the company, while keeping the same look and feel of the original logos. My favorite one is the "procrastination" one that is mocking facebook.

Negative Space- Tang Yau Hoong

This is a great collection of illustration by Tang Yau Hoong that emphasizes negative space incredibly well. They are very interesting and inspiring compositions.

Amanda -- Tutorial

This is a nice tutorial from Computer Arts, I think that this might be helpful in our next project and also for the future when creating branding pieces.

On stumble upon I found these double exposure photographs. They were created by the artist Dan Mountford. I love the shape of the human body mixed together with different subjects. They are very pleasing to the eye and keep my attention.

Tattoo Designs... BAD ONES

This may be pretty loosely related to design, but it is entertaining.

Las Vegas Panorama

This is a great street view of Las Vegas outside of the Hotel Paris. It is completely interactive so you can drag the screen to look around whatever direction you want and zoom in or out on specific details.

For this project, I am thinking of incorporating the neon lights aspect. I really like the contrast between the black sky and all of the neon lights. I really like the idea of line drawing, instead of filled in objects.

I am also thinking of using this idea for the front cover, and then basing the line drawing off of that, and using similar patterns throughout the booklet.

Amanda - Brochure Design

I found this article on Computer Arts about brochure design. I thought the tips talked about in this article could help when we start to design the How conference brochure.
