The Unconventional Artwork of Scott Wade
Oct 06, 2009 by Derek in Focus, InspirationExpression rears its head in so many forms it’s impossible to count – but most often, it’s in some form we can keep, or at least that’s publicly appreciable. Ice sculpture melts within a few hours but is eye-catching and sparkly; sidewalk art from the likes of Julian Beever just washes away with the next rain but can be loved by throngs of people who walk by. Scott Wade has neither of these luxuries.

Darkness & Light – Illustrations by Javier
Aug 28, 2009 by Derek in Focus, Inspiration, PhotoshopPixellica presents a selection of astounding Photoshop illustrations that play on both darkness and light. Created by Javier, AKA PoisonVectors, these illustrations capture everything we love about Photoshop: Smoke, light, swirls, dark blending, and the people who are always at the center – though they always bear some resemblance to each other – who seem so oblivious to where they are but nonetheless so utterly captured by the the very illustration they inhabit.
