L-O-V-E Makes The World Go W-E-I-R-D (11 Photos)
Posted by C on Monday, October 17, 2011 · I found these funny illustrations in the net yesterday. The article was actually entitled, “Nerdy Dirty Illustrations for Nerds In Love.” But I believe that these do not only apply to the nerds because when you are trapped in the four letters of L-O-V-E, you’d be weirder than you’ve ever been. Check the other illustrations as you scroll down below. They may sound a bit “cheesy” though but they can be really amusing. All illustrations created by the exceptional Nicole Martinez.

5 Annoying Trends That Make Every Movie Look the Same Hollywood: the dream factory, the place where joy is made and everybody craps rainbows and cocaine. But underneath the glitz is a bunch of working stiffs who are either just trying to get the job done, or hacks who get their original ideas by ripping off other hacks. That's why these days... #5.

Biography Kissing Sailor - Found at Last Glenn Edward McDuffie knows why the sailor kissing a white-clad nurse in that famous photo has his wrist bent back in an awkward position. Taken August 14, 1945 in New York City's Times Square moments after the crowd there heard World War II had ended, that photo has epitomized the jubilant mood of a nation who had won our hard fought victory. The Art Of Jeremy Enecio I recently ran into a stunning portfolio of art by Jeremy Enecio, a Phillipines born illustrator who migrated to the US when he was four. His work is absolutely beautiful, and even when he works digitally his work retains an incredibly painterly feel. I encourage you guys to check out eight more of his works after the break. With the exception of the Street Fighter piece above, I find a lot of his other work to be surreal, haunting and incredibly beautiful.

mbine textures with vectors When you work with Illustrator and Photoshop together, you have the best of both worlds. Illustrator has an impressive set of vector drawing tools and features, enabling you to create wonderfully detailed, sharp illustrations with ease. However, sometimes the sharpness inherent within vector art is also its downfall. Vector graphics can look too perfect, especially when reproduced at scale. Adding the necessary imperfections is where Photoshop comes in. Blending modes, masks and Alpha Channels can give a convincing distressed effect to your vectors. Banned Advertising Campaign - Diesel Be Stupid Ads Campaign Diesel ‘Be Stupid’ Ads Banned for Being Indecent and Antisocial For those who are adventurous and have the guts to do something offbeat would love these creative ads. These images are sure to zap you in case you haven’t seen these earlier. These portray sheer courage and are pretty blunt too. It is rightly said that when the message is depicted in the raw form it meets the targeted audience in a far better manner. However, on the lighter side you’d probably not preach the same concept when out on roads or amongst the friends.

The Fortnightly Review › Vorticism. By Ezra Pound. It is no more ridiculous that a person should receive or convey an emotion by means of an arrangement of shapes, or planes, or colours, than that they should receive or convey such emotion by an arrangement of musical notes. I SUPPOSE THIS PROPOSITION is self-evident. Whistler said as much, some years ago, and Pater proclaimed that “All arts approach the conditions of music.”
