cardboard cloud

http://www.core77.com/blog/object_culture/fantastic_norways_cardboard_cloud_13846.asp

I love stuff like this. The concept, a cloud made of cardboard boxes, is not exactly mind blowing, but the sheer spectacle is fantastic. You've got to have faith in an idea like this to see it through. I probably never would. I barely have faith in my ability to get dressed in the morning (still fairly certain I'm doing it wrong).
Got to look up some puns about cardboard now.
Oh! I just thought: something about flaps and birds? You do the rest.

Josh Cochran MOUNTAIN DEW

Mountain Dew is my second favourite fizzy drink. Josh Cochran is one of my favourite illustrators.

NOW Josh Cochran has done a commercial for Mountain Dew. What are the chances.



I'm hopefully going to meet Mr Josh Cochran when I land in America in a couple of weeks. Couldn't be more excited. I'm going to drink nothing but Mountain Dew the entire time I'm there, until my blood is green and sugar. Try and stop me. Go on. Try.

Martin Wilson

So this guy makes images out of the film of photos he takes. You follow?

Observe:

























Looks painstaking to create, imagine finding out at the end you took one the wrong way round...

Great though! Check out MORE HERE.

Probably worth mentioning I found this on drawn as ever. I should probably name my first child "drawn" as a tribute.

giant website

Ok so for anyone who isn't aware: the Giant website is ONLINE. Check it out. My work is on there as well as several other Stockport college graduates and students. Worth a long look.

This post was typed with one hand, whilst on the phone to Francesca Lloyd, an illustration student at Bristol, so everyone say hi. Obviously she can't hear you, and neither can I.
Don't you feel stupid now?

car park

this please me deeply. But I am safe, behind a monitor. If I actually saw it in real life I might freak out and think I was still playing a computer game, crash and die.
