Hungry hungry hippos: one pearl to rule them all (Taken with Instagram)
Inspired by 2001: A Space Odyssey and reads “I’m sorry…helvetica…I’m afraid I can’t do that”, a riff off the original line from the film.

See for yourself the magic and beauty of The Fountain with this high quality Giclee print from the Modern Stylographer.
This textured science fiction print would make a great piece of art for any home. Part of a new series of inspired posters based on some of the greatest science fiction and fantasy movies.

I just made my first bulk sale to Sheldon Gallery in Belfast and Newtownards in the UK. Looks like a long night of printing and packaging!

I wanted to send a thanks to Steve Jobs for all of his years with Apple, his innovative mind, his love for the arts and for creating the objects of my desire/necessity. If it wasn’t for Apple’s renaissance in the ’90s/’00s, I wouldn’t have been so drawn into the creative paths available through computer technology and might never have gone to SCAD and gotten the design degrees I now cherish. So that you Steve for inspiring me and being a part of my journey while I hopefully followed your own.

Check out the 11x17 poster collection from the modern retelling of the great Sherlock Holmes. Each poster is a great art piece representing each episode from the new series. These iconic images from the series tell the story in a minimalistic fashion; the pills from “A study in Pink”, the graffiti from The Blind Banker”, and an illustration of Moriarty from “The Great Game”.

modern design poster with art inspired by “Victory of the Daleks” episode of Doctor Who. These posters are not only fan-service, they are pieces of fine art. This poster features the image a blimp over London during WWII; a very symbolic element in the episode. All Doctor Who inspired posters feature an icon that best represents the themes of an episode.
Our education system is hitting some stubborned roadblocks...
| raetzke: | |
| oh! And i had a student who said yesterday, during a discussion of why we study history, that he did not believe what we study. I asked why. | |
| He said, well how do we know that's what happened when people are writing about it later. | |
| me" | |
| ...bible | |
| raetzke: | |
| oh, he believes in the bible. which...well, you get the idea. | |
| raetzke: | |
| so we talked about 1776. independence. | |
| he asked how we knew that that's what really happened. | |
| me: | |
| other than all the documentation and the writings of the people from that exact time period? | |
| the fact we aren't all British... hahahaha, wow. | |
| raetzke: | |
| the longer i think about it the more it seems insane. | |
| me: | |
| it's a pretty substandard method of thinking that's for sure, I mean why even bother going to college? All education is, is repeating historical facts and practices and applying contextual elements to make them relevant. | |
| me: | |
| seems like he was trying to establish a dialog on the power we give the historical record and how easliy it can be manipulated or misrepresented, there by influencing the development of future generations who might not have progressed or regressed to the same degree, had the established historical data been truthfully regulated | |
| or whatever |
