Sam Weber, Lord of The Flies

William Golding’s Lord of The Flies, illustrated by Brooklyn based Sam Weber. A classic story with contemporary illustration. Illustrations done with the darkness and vulnerability that the story deserves and not to mention they are so  beautifully satisfying. Shame the copy I had at school (below) wasn’t quite so bold. Although defaced I still think it’s a sweet cover, I don’t think I’d go defacing Sam Weber’s edition though.

I have written about illustrator Nate Williams in the past, last year he developed a site called letterPLAYGROUND where people with a love of typography can go and play with the design and makeup of lettering.

Beautiful work from French graphic designer Yann Legendre. These are a few of my favorites from his selected work on the website, take a look at www.yannlegendre.com (unfortunately his store doesn’t seem to be working for posters and books, if I find anywhere that stocks them I’ll update you).

WK Interact “Never Sleeps”

Just back from a wonderful trip in the snowy Italian Alps, so easing myself back into normality..booooo. Here’s a film by French street artist WK Interact bringing NBA player for the Miami Heat Dwyane Wade to life on the streets of Manhattan. Enjoy.

Pringle by David Shrigley

This is brilliant and highly recommend taking the 3 minute 10 seconds out of your busy life to enjoy this animation. Luxury knitwear Pringle commissioned David Shrigley to create a humorous animation about life behind-the-scenes at Pringle to celebrate the brands return to Milan Fashion Week. I love the voice over and all the subtle humour within the illustration.
