Killer Site #8: Róth Anikós paintings and silk works

admin — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 17:35:15 +0000

What can I say? Beautiful Site – Beautiful Illustrations. Not only are there some awesome illustration works, but the Flash is very well done and very creative. The Flash work and site was done by www.kilfish.com.

Róth Anikós was born in Szekszárd, Hungary. She has quite a long list of exhibitions on her about page. Her work reminds me of something that I can’t quite put my finger on… If you know what it is please comment! But anyways.. enough jibber jabber.. Check out her site… www.rothaniko.hu

Handwriting Font – Olicana by Nick Cooke

Feast your eyes on this very authentic handwriting font by Nick Cooke who studied Graphic Design at Blackpool College. I love how this handwriting font exudes the “inky” feel that it does. Full of imperfections and irregularities it really makes one believe at first glance that you may be looking at real handwriting. Real enough that you may find yourself looking around for a feather and a well of India ink. The font asks nothing of you and seems content within it’s own obvious imperfection. I find it both elegant and sloppy at the same time. Available in both rough and smooth versions, it’s possibilities become even more apparent. I prefer the “Don Johnson” stubbly rough version. Also included are Ink splats and scratchy lines to really heighten the effect. This is not a free font, and I am not suggesting that you purchase. I just wanted to show and tell.

I don’t have an iPhone yet. I keep meaning to pick one up, but I just can’t justify ditching my T-Mobile HTC Wizard yet. I stumbled on some really beautiful icons for the iPhone over at deviantART made by Guoduan Bu who studies at the Nanjing Art Institute. He is an unbelievable digital arteeest. You have to check out his website here when you get a moment.

Killer Site#6: Rubens LP – Illustrator

Some more beautiful pixels at Rubens LP. There are some very interesting line drawings at his site. On the higher side of unique. His images seem to lack a traditional “completeness”, but in the way he illustrates with his line art it seems to create even more than the complete image would show if it were in it’s entirety. I don’t know if I am saying that correctly… To find out just what I am talking about, drop on by Rubens LP.

Killer Site #5: Artist TSANG Kin-Wah

TSANG Kin-Wah creates some really interesting work. Born in Guangdong, China he then moved to Hong Kong about 6 years later. He has also had many successful exhibitions. His work is unique and seems to strive to show the “truth” behind things. More than what is just perceived. His goal seems to get the viewer to re-think things. I will let his art speak for itself. In this case, his site is considered a ”Killer Website” because he is a killer artist (must I always explain? LOL). A wonderful talent with motive.
