Blog News: New Headers

I hope you like the new headers, I decided to go with something a little more colorful this time around. Since no one actually sent in images to be featured as a header for the blog, I just made a few myself. Artkamp will be using a new font for our logo and will now [...]

Book Wish List: Prefab Home Edition

One thing I love is books about art, design, or architecture. One thing I hate is having no money to buy any. So I just wanted to post a few books I found that I would LOVE if someone bought for me (hint hint). If you have read this blog for a while, you will [...]

Lazer Wolf Pictures

Since the Adam Parker Smith show in Biggin will be coming down soon, I guess its high time I get around to posting an image of the complete mural. Below are a couple of the heads that I helped place. It was definitely a good learning experience, getting to help install a show in the [...]

Scent Art by Hilda Kozári

Hilda Kozári has recreated the smell of three cities, Helsinki, Paris, and Budapest (the good and the bad) in collaboration with  Bertrand Duchaufour. 
I have to admit, as much as I’d like to smell it, the bubbles make me pretty happy too.  I’m fascinated by artists who seek to recreate experiences, and I can only imagine how affecting [...]

Featured Artist: Robin Williams

I haven’t written a featured artist piece in quite a while now, but my current mission to find a fresh sincere style of realist/figurative painting has gotten me onto a maddening inspiration search. Within this search I came across Robin Williams, her work features children but in an eerily silent manner. The children do childish [...]

Trajan: The Movie Font

I recently found this extremely funny clip about movie fonts that I thought I’d share. (It may perhaps be slightly funnier with Graphic Designers or font aficionado’s like myself.) It deals with with one of the most derivative fields in Graphic Design, Movie posters. Most often their wholly unoriginal, ripping off ideas they saw somewhere [...]

Lazer Wolf, by Adam Parker Smith in Biggin Gallery

 
I haven’t posted in a while, and being busy isn’t really a valid excuse in my opinion. I’ll just say, “I’m back” and move on. If you haven’t yet gone and seen the show by Adam Parker Smith in Biggin, I suggest you do so before its gone at the end of February. It’s easily [...]
