I found this site called Lovely Package. I love it. Here are some examples, but it would be better for you to just visit the site...

Eyvind Earle

(featured at Disneyland from 1957 until the mid-70's)

I recently came across these amazing images by Eyvind Earle (1916-2000), who was an artist, illustrator and author. He did the background illustrations and stylings for Disney in the 1950's, including Sleeping Beauty, Lady and the Tramp, Peter Pan and a few shorts.

Retro-Tomorrowland

I found these retro Disneyland's Tomorrowland posters today. I would give anything to have been at Disneyland when it opened in 1955.


Which one is your favorite?

The Gashlycrumb Tinies

These are a couple of pages from the book "The Gashlycrumb Tinies" by Edward Gorey. The book is pretty morbid about 26 children that are alphabetically disposed of one by one. I dunno how I just now heard about this. It was printed in the early 60's. All of Gorey's books and illustrations are macabre and witty, and that's right up my alley. Not to mention, the guy was mostly self taught... like me!

Twine & Twig

My beautiful wife has joined the blogging world (finally!) with her design blog, TWINE & TWIG! Here are some examples of her stuff--





What can I say? The girl is talented!

Scott Campbell!

This may be the coolest thing I have ever seen. See if you can name all the characters featured in the Cult Tree! My favorite part is that Indiana Jones and Ash are on the same branch. Can you find Pee Wee? Or Wicket? Or Greedo? Or Willow? Or Spinal Tap? Oh yeah, they're all there, my friends...

Here's more Scott C. stuff...

and... E.T. and Friends...

I added a few of these to my Christmas wish list.

If you know me, you know that I love illustrations of pop culture icons (especially E.T.), so this is like the best of both worlds! Plus they feature some of the characters I grew up with. I love these... and Scott C. seems pretty rad, too!

Threadless Design!

I submitted a design to Threadless.com...

It's not up on the site just yet, but you should check in the next couple of days and gimme a high score... I could sure use it!
