Good Wives and Warriors (GWAW) is the creative partnership of Becky Bolton and Louise Chappell, who met each other whilst studying at the Glasgow School of Art. Rebecca means ‘good wife’ and Louise means ‘warrior’, and together they create weird and wonderful illustrations and sprawling wall paintings. They have participated in exhibitions all around the world, including Europe, the USA, South America and Australia, and are still continuing to work on their projects using their unique and experimental approach. They are currently based in London.
They have worked for a huge amount of clients including some very popular brands such as Adidas, Swatch, MTV and Urban Outfitters. There client list is growing, and it’s easy to see why if you take a look at there incredible work which is showcase below.
Lego is over 50 years old, and is still one of the most-selling “toys” on the market. Although typically categorized as a toy, it can be used for loads of things; artwork, sculpturing, typography and even for building furniture! This post is a short but very inspirational showcase of some of my favorite Lego artwork, collected from Behance and Flickr.
Movie posters are one of my favourite sources of inspiration, and I love to look at how they have developed over the decades. In this post, we will be looking at how the designs of action movie posters have changed since the 1960’s. You’ll find one poster per year so we can closely monitor the changes, and a small selection of current trends that we’re going to be seeing over the next year (2010) or so.
Action movie posters in general are typically very interesting – captured images of fight scenes, guns, explosions and of course the odd flash of naked flesh are all things that express action films well. The design of a movie poster is commonly underestimated – even with the internet and social media sites, posters are still one of the most effective ways of advertising a new blockbuster film.
