Carie by Quentin Leblanc

I came across this design from Quentin Leblanc and thought it was worth posting. Quentin does have some bright colored and interesting pieces in his portfolio. You can view his work at http://www.artofleb.fr/

Wiz Khalifa poster by Vision

This was created by Spanish graphic designer Adrián Romero or as he's known in Spain as Vision. I like the color palette, the flow from the bottom to the top, the elements he used to surround the illustrated rapper, the custom looking text, and the texture in the background. Since, Wiz Khalifa enjoys smoking the ganja I really do think the choice o using green was smart. What are your thoughts?

Here is the final result from the sketch that I was working on the last couple of days. I honestly had no direction, except that I wanted to create a simple face in Photoshop, instead of illustrator. I decided to work with shapes and I felt splatter could make for an interesting element in this illustration. Even though I used splatter in this design, I still feel as though the white background still makes this image clean, because it's very clear. The focal point was obviously the face, but I think the diamond in the background and the glimpse of the circle adds a nice a touch. If I even wanted to put this on a t-shirt it is already separated.

I know I've posted their free splatter, but definitely check out all the freebies that they have to offer. It's great that they have high quality stuff for designers to check out. They have various textures, brushes, Photoshop actions, vectors, 3d renders, etc. I recommend looking at it, because it may be worth it when looking for that something extra in a design.
