Design is Everywhere!


Artistic design is everywhere! Char’s daughter designed this swimsuit for her swimwear company and is featured in this month’s Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue. It is also featured online. The Male model is Chris Paul from the LA Clippers.

Here are some other examples that are on trend:

Design created by using Fractals

Black and white landscape photography

Black and white macro photo of a vintage pocket watch - Photo taken by ClawzSkunk

Black and White Trees in reverse by Norman Silverstone

Venus by Aubrey Beardsley

He was unknown in 1892. By the time of his death in 1898, a mere six years, he had broken through the Victorian unconscious and hurled England into the 20th century. Many of his drawings first made their appearance in books or magazines with relatively limited subscription. Despite this, his erotic, humorous, and haunting drawings came to be popular and have been for more than a hundred years.

A great example can also be found in Goldfrap's Video below:

Congrats to ASI

At the Beginning of the year Visualarts Ltd.. assisted selection and placement for Perham's beautiful new hospital Perham Memorial Hospital and Home in conjunction with Jennifer Paist from Horty Elving. Together we selected artist Tanya Garvis to create custom colored glass enamel infused copper tiles to enhance importance of the donor wall.

ASI did all of the signage in the project and have featured the donor wall in their overall case study for the PMHH project, please see the link that is featured on ASI's website. The link describes the great collaborative process that went into the design. The project also received 1st runner up for the “Best of ASI” at their national sales conference in Miami.

Thanks to ASI for the nod!
