The Fart Party: in fact it’s a gas

Posted by John Lampard on Tuesday, 8 July, 2008 to the design and art subset

And now for a completely different spin on personal blogging... Julia Wertz presents her life as a three times a week comic strip, with an unmissable title, The Fart Party. The Fart Party is an autobiographical comic (with frequent but obvious exaggerations) by a 25 year old girl who used to live in San Francisco but now regretfully lives in Brooklyn, NY. Updated about three times a week, the ... Read full entry

One Leg Leads to Another

Posted by John Lampard on Thursday, 22 May, 2008 to the design and art subset

One Leg Leads to Another A collection of book and magazine covers, and movie posters, featuring the use of the "A-Frame" spread-leg stance. The human leg has evolved continually over many eons, adapting from an underwater propeller to its current form. But on book covers and on film and theater posters, the leg has evolved very little. In fact, the "A-Frame," a cutoff-torso-spread-leg framing device, is the most frequently copied trope ... Read full entry

Posted by John Lampard on Wednesday, 21 May, 2008 to the design and art subset

Arlene Textaqueen superhero, and texta artist, is interviewed at The Design Files. Marvel at the texta generated art, and Textaqueen's texta collection.

Posted by John Lampard on Friday, 16 May, 2008 to the design and art subset

Extending album art Clever album cover graphics showing what's happening outside the border of the cover image. This puts the cover of Oasis' What's The Story Morning Glory into an all too obvious context. Bigger than Abbey Road hey?
