I love his style. In fact those hand drawn letters are so mesmerising. I love how he took the time to create such details. two things i learnt from him. time and effort = priceless satisfaction of an artpiece that you will proud of. and of course having your own style.

speaking of style, im in need of finding out my own one.

urgh....i think i have it already. i just need to flick it across to my own works for my folio.

ive to start putting together a better folio now. i mean seriously. i am lagging behind.

kaman told me the other day some of the girls including her thought of exhibiting in a space during march next year. i wanna be well equipped with awesome stuff to show. i need to have developed all my collateral by then. my folio, works to sell or auction for, simply said, i need to show off my style!

its gonna be exciting. i want to make it a stepping platform for me to get a better designer position or any opportunities of freelance design!

Very talented young lad. Check some of his works in his very simple to navigate site! Nicolas Tual is quite a fresh grad but his talent is superb.! he has a few self art directed works and his illustrations are really eye catching. i love the colours he used and the characters he created. It is so awesome to be able to use your own personal style and touch on your client's work. I mean it's a great way to spread your art...


For now my design work has to cater to client's guidelines. I hope someday I get to spread my personal touch on big brands too.


Lovely lovely inspiration!


Oh, by the way, Erica is gonna feature in a segment tomorrow night on Channel News Asia. I better not miss that one! My classmates are all doing well. Viet tu is in Edinburgh taking her masters. I last hear Joanne is an berlin doing god know what. But im sure she's having a helluva fun time! And jie ni is launching her FYP book on chinese superstitions, which is super great!


I do have visions to expands my fyp. But im getting more drawn to geometric and minimalist things nowadays. perhaps i can incorporate that interest into my works. speaking of which, i need to build my folio soon. lots to do.... this is super exciting! but quite nerve wrecking!

Really cool campaign!

Would like to see them on the street actually but I doubt Singapore would allow visuals like this...Nevertheless I love how the illustrations merge with the real subject. And it's witty and so-in-your-face!

Thanks sam for posting this on your fb wall!

I love chancing upon little little delights like this... especially when you are zoning out at work.. heh heh..

Wizard of Oz REVAMPED
Jessica Hische is a designer who is all about type! She teaches at University of the Arts in Philadelphia in a module called Personal Viewpoints. She gave her class an assignment; one main project with multiple components — book cover design + endpapers, titlepage, and bookplate for a special edition novelization of The Wizard of Oz. More designs to view here.


I would love to be part of this class. Perhaps I can create a revamped look of my favorite book when I find the time....Which reminds me, I have yet to finish my design for my personal stuff!

Megan Diddie

The site BOOOOOOOM has awesome design inspirations!!

Catch Megan in her site. Really awesome!

She also has a blog where she sells her paintings and drawings. She portrays evocative issues in her mixed media pieces and she explores the surreal and unconscious world/musings.

She reveals a world of eroticism, dreams and also showcases a certain fascination for bodies, illusions, obsessions and etc. It must be her strong foundation and understanding of art history and having such great inspirations like Rita Ackermann led her to render such great works.

New York Girl of My Dreams...

I can't believe they broke up. He found her and they dated. And ended...Well his way of trying to find her is so sweet! I think I am just smitten but guys who can illustrate. Or the ones with nerdy specs. Maybe I likve the geeky look now?

Patrick Moberg

He is one great illustrator. His style is witty and scruffy and so does his appearance too =) I am inspired! I find some similarities in the way we draw. but perhaps he draw it digitally? and colour them digitally too? 

But I draw it with hand and scan my doodles in and colour them digitally. That's how it works. And I didnt really draw, just doodles. Less than 5 minutes kinda work. But his illustrations are way way more awesome than mine. I've lots to polish I guess. I love his style. Long legs and skinny people. They look comical!

daily.doods

where my doodles are stored cause i dont know where else to store them.. =) things that kept me sane at work when i am bored to death! basically both happy and sad things that happens to me everyday. I am guessing I will draw a lot of food here!

Jessica Hische

he handwrites and draw her own letters when it comes to typography. She admits she's not great at choosing fonts and would prefer making her own hand rendered fonts. Which is a unique talent in my opinion. I love type too and I love her self and current project Daily Drop Cap. It is very interesting creating a drop cap for web usage. Which is popular now and I have already used it!

Well I am starting on a tumblr blog too. It will be my stash of daily random doodles that makes me feel whatever I feel that day. I have a couple of random doodles but I haven't scanned them in yet. So will share the link later then...

Klas Ernflo

Love love love her drawings to bits. Her works speaks of her as a designer and illustrator. Minimalistic and downright sterile style. Her works are simple but I am attracted to the queerness of the things Klas illustrate.
