Inpirating Creations

I found really cool artwork that I've fallen in love with. It is from a website called Eyes On Walls and they work with artist to help publish their work to the masses. I think it is a great way to give artist a chance to be known for their work. The art is directed to the urban culture and have very modern and inspiring details. They have a handful of artist that they work with and I was so motivated by them that I decided to start painting again. Hopefully it inspires you as it has inspired me.

It takes good design to make me thirsty for both beer and a brand story. And the tale behind Monteith's Single Source Lager Beer is a good'un. It's a beer that re-awakens appreciation for the art of brewing, a beer that champions the land and the people from which its ingredients are sourced.  You can read more (or watch a video) about the Single Source philosophy here.

The elegant, pared-back design is from New Zealand's DesignWorks. The hand-drawn signature line represents the fact we can trace the very human journey of the beer's crafting - from paddock to palate. And the black glass bottle is not just to look pretty - it preserves the beer's freshness by protecting it from light and heat.  Class, character and integrity...nice work.
