Season's Greetings to all - here's a wallpaper I made out of one my brother's photographs, a font called bender inline, and some sweet cloud brushes for photoshop.

I recently updated my Lorem Ipsum Generator on BigTypo.com to include Holiday (Christmas) themed copy. It goes like this: On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me, a Partridge in a Pear Tree. On the second day of Christmas, my true love gave to me, two Turtle Doves and a Partridge in a Pear Tree. On the third day of Christmas... and so on.]]> http://www.notbadart.com/christmas-lorem-ipsum-generator/feed/ 0 http://www.notbadart.com/stormtroopopus/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=stormtroopopus http://www.notbadart.com/stormtroopopus/#comments Sat, 12 Nov 2011 22:04:48 +0000 dave http://www.notbadart.com/?p=400
Star Wars / Storm Trooper / Octopus vector illustration for kicks. Thought it would make a good t-shirt.]]> http://www.notbadart.com/stormtroopopus/feed/ 0 http://www.notbadart.com/ampbuzz-october-20-2011/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=ampbuzz-october-20-2011 http://www.notbadart.com/ampbuzz-october-20-2011/#comments Fri, 21 Oct 2011 16:08:52 +0000 dave http://www.notbadart.com/ampbuzz-october-20-2011/

A friend recently got in touch with me and mentioned that she had been listening to a compilation I put together more than 10 years ago. It made my day, but then even better, I dug around and found it myself. I still love it. It inspired a bit of a refresh - all the music is exactly the same but I made some album artwork for it. Please enjoy, and stay mellow!

Finally arrived at a place that I think is a solid look for Deltron 3030: The Second Event. This is probably the last exploration I'll do using this illustration set. Anything next will be more about mood, texture, mysterious photography... more like the first album's artwork.]]> http://www.notbadart.com/deltron-event-2-post-4/feed/ 0 http://www.notbadart.com/2-new-mixes-and-album-art/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=2-new-mixes-and-album-art http://www.notbadart.com/2-new-mixes-and-album-art/#comments Tue, 13 Sep 2011 00:18:32 +0000 dave http://www.notbadart.com/?p=365
You don't have to be a designer to like 8tracks.com, but it's two awesome things in one if you are. Here are two mixes + artwork I recently put together. triPolar on 8tracks.com » pb & jellyka on 8tracks.com »]]> http://www.notbadart.com/2-new-mixes-and-album-art/feed/ 0 http://www.notbadart.com/ampbuzz-sep-8-2011/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=ampbuzz-sep-8-2011 http://www.notbadart.com/ampbuzz-sep-8-2011/#comments Fri, 09 Sep 2011 08:42:19 +0000 dave http://www.notbadart.com/ampbuzz-sep-8-2011/

I'm working on a series of prints for sale over at ImageKind. No real cohesion to the ideas, except that I expect them all to look great framed on a wall.   This particular concept is probably well spelled-out by the typography. Like many, I find the ocean to be alluring and calming, and once I have it in my sights, I don't want to leave.   For those that like the artwork, but not the idea of paying for it (I hear ya), here are some wallpaper downloads:  ]]> http://www.notbadart.com/the-ocean-print/feed/ 0 http://www.notbadart.com/not-bad-music-vol-2-indie-chick-remix/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=not-bad-music-vol-2-indie-chick-remix http://www.notbadart.com/not-bad-music-vol-2-indie-chick-remix/#comments Sat, 30 Jul 2011 23:57:50 +0000 dave http://www.notbadart.com/not-bad-music-vol-2-indie-chick-remix/
Female vocals in the Indie Rock realm cover a range of staggeringly awesome sounds, from the punchy attitude of Katie White from The Ting Tings to the soothing whispers of The xx's Jamie Smith. These stand-out singers (and their bands) are oftentimes brought into a new realm of sound when master DJs like DFA and MSTRKRFT are given free range to add their own spin on an otherwise flawless sound, and then they make it something that we all hope for but don't always get... awesome times two. Break out a glow stick and dance your bottoms off as you enjoy this set of indie bands with female vocals mixed to dance star perfection.
