Storm Thorgerson: The Album Art guru

This artist has great designs you must agree but what is it with all the naked fellows? The great graphic designer passed on recently. I post some of his great works here as a tribute to his ingenuity. He was a very eccentric personality.He had a love for the weird and wonderful.
His "STORMSTUDIOS" march on. See some of the works here and make your  comments

The art was made for a band to illustrate a foot in the door or the reverse. it was turned down but Storm chronicled it and couldn't see why it was turned down.

Here, he mixes painting with a photograph medium to deliver this album art for Rival Storms' Pressure and Time.

Yours artistically,

LOGOS

My new logo design knowledge quest is so exciting. Just discovered some great advices on giving your logo design process a systematic approach. It is a new and challenging journey because it limits me to just four tools: Pen, Shape, Text and Path selection (in PS if you dont mind me talking shop).

So, with what I have learnt, expect new logos like these below.





Cool stuff! So, who wants a tryout? Send me your brief stating your company name, your objectives, your services and clear idea of what you want your logo to be. Then, please don't interfere with my design except at scheduled feedback sessions. (Some clients can get overly fussy but trust the Pros, ok?)

Check these links out if you are a designer too

TIME

Moxie Drills. We went to the University together. That brother never let the day end without showing me a new verse or rhyme he just concluded. Thank God there is a medium now to share his works with you guys. My head "wan nearly burst".

Albert Steveso

I enjoy art. I dont know all the fancy terms for analysing art forms but I get by. I also respect commercial art as it makes all the effort worthwhile. I get lots of newsletters from design sites and blogs encouraging me to ' learn art' but I find I pursue something else, most of the times. Anyway, this fellow, Albert Steveso caught my roving eyes. Please, look at the resonant theme in the following and see if it elicits any feeling of euphoria.



















Cool designs, huh? They make me sit up all night with my PS CS6 Extended.

Business Card

Simple Card design for Cost and Design Engineers, GRIA ELECTRIC. One of the pricey ones.


A sample card design for Tata Messiri Consultants. Not so pricey.
