As one of my readers, Jan, pointed out last week, I sure had a long Christmas break from blogging. So true! But I’m back and with happy news too, even though it may lead to, me not posting as reguarly as before. There’s a little something I’m expecting in August and that means I’m reading not-so-cool-baby-stuff-blogs instead of just design and art blogs at the moment. Still I hope you will be reading my posts in the future. I’ll start the week with these gorgeous and original 3D posters that Amy Rodchester made for the Newcastle Festival of Dance.Sweet Station
Born and raised in Venice, California, Tansy Myer came of age among the eclectic artist community of the Venice Boardwalk. With a beautiful roller skating hippie dream girl for a mother and a rock-and-roll father traveling the world, her life was always halfway between reality and fantasy. Inspired by the indulgent worlds of music and fashion, she began drawing her girls at a young age as a way to create and control the beauty and perfection that seemed to be the pinnacle of achievement for a girl. Tansy’s work centers around identity and how women use beauty to define themselves. The themes of adolescence and adulthood, innocence and sexuality are present in both her digital drawings and paintings. The juxtaposition of her slick and pretty digital work, with the raw awkwardness of her “nerd” girls is a perfect example of the battle inside every woman to identify themselves in an appearance-obsessed culture.

Collection of Deviant Artists
DeviantArt is an amazing community that provides very nice artwork for designers and artists around the world. The community is one of the internet’s biggest, and I decided to dab into the community with a few artists on showcase here. I looked through hundreds of deviants, and I compiled a few that caught my eye.
