It has been a good time since I did my last photoshop tutorial, so for this week I decided to take a look at some old works I did when I were more into photoshop and just found this awesome one. However, when I opened the orinal PSD. file I found many things I wouldn't do nowadays, so I decided to try to recreate using my reent methods. This a experience I would recommend to anyone: get an old design and try to redo it.
The wallpaper of this week is an image created by Diego L. Rodríguez called NAMAZU, a designer, digital artist and photographer from Spain but currently based in Mexico Distrito Federal, Mexico. This artwork represents a personal visualization of this amazing catfish causing an earthquake. Is one of the multiple projects I have in mind representing creatures, symbols and techniques used by Japanese artists throughout the history. It's one of the illustrations created for slashThree's latest exhibition "Paradigm Shift".
Inspiration is everywhere, I believe everyone knows that but each one of us has some preferences or things that inspire more than others, in my case it's skateboard graphics. That's why the book suggestion of this week is about Skateboard Graphics. It's called New Skateboard Graphics. If you remember we ran a giveaway of this book 3 years ago, but I was checking it out again and had to add to our book suggestion list.
