Erin McGuire's adventures in blue

Last May I did a post about Erin Mcguire's work at the moment I found her blog and was spelled by her art.
I went back and was enchanted again and as it's always hard to chose two in a good collection I decided for these because I love blue.
At least there is a criterion not very orthodox but a criterion.
But notice that the "action" is not in blue. The cat and the boy with a book in his hand as a shadow and the light that comes from inside is amazing.

Erin McGuire's adventures in the graphic design world

I was lucky today. I clicked at "next blog" maybe for the forth time in my internet life and came across with Erin McGuire site an amazing graphic designer that do a lot of different works without losing something only she has.
I'm still looking and enchanted by her sketches, books she likes and make covers for them... her universe that is very creative and amazing. I've chosen these pictures but I would really like to have some more. Hope you like them.
It is a good idea to check her blog this Saturday. Have a great weekend!

Jukka Veistola posters about Toulouse-Lautrec and UNICEF's hunger campaign

The Finish graphic designer Jukka Veistola is considered one of the best of our times and has received many awards. The right work was awarded the First Prize in International Competition for Design of a poster for Unicef Childrens' Aid, Paris, in 1969.

It is really a very appealing work but unfortunately 41 years after there are more children in hunger and starvation. It must make the work of graphic designers very hard because I believe that while creating the posters all participants wanted to make a difference.

In 2001 Jukka Veistola did the left poster for the Nouveau Salon des Cent for the centenary of Toulouse-Lautrec's death. A portfolio of one hundred posters created by graphic designers of twenty-four countries has been exhibited all over the world. You can watch the posters of the others participants here.
