Following our series of Pixelmator tutorials, this week we will show you how to create an abstract wallpaper using the Quartz Composer filters. Even though the effect seems a bit complex, you will be surprise how easy is to create it in Pixelmator. It won't take you more than 10 minutes to reproduce this tutorial. And to make you really keen on doing that we will give away 2 copies of Pixelmator.
The wallpaper of this week is an image created by Alecio Calixto and it's called The Crow. Alecio is an art director and digital designer from Brazil. The image was a suggestion from Alecio himself to us via email. You can also suggest us wallpapers. Just email them to abduzeedo@abduzeedo.com with the subject "Wallpaper of the Week"

The book suggestion of this week is about typography and it's a great source of inspiration. The book is called New Vintage Type: Classic Fonts for the Digital Age and we have used it for reference in many tutorials here on Abduzeedo.
