A gift for designers: Vannen does CMYK watch series!

Vannen Watches have revealed the above teaser for their forthcoming CMYK watch series, the first of which should be debuting in the next week. For those that don't know, CMYK stands for Cyan (Blue), Magenta (Red), Yellow and Key (Black)… it's the four-color process traditional printing methods use, since those four colors can be used together to create almost any other color, and thus that designers have used for ages. And the watches in this series are certain to be the perfect gifts for the graphic designers in your life.

Chauskoskis's WIP PLAYSAM custom for the show at Super7!

This is a work-in-progress picture from Walter "Chauskoskis" Jacott's custom Playsam Streamliner Classic for the upcoming "PLAYSAM 500" group show at Super7. What I love here is that we can see this amazingly crafted sculpture and no Playsam car… though, is it just me or does it appear a Playsam would fit perfectly atop that head? Oh yes, I think it is happening and it will look incredible!

Matt "Lunartik" JOnes commits social media suicide… 

We all love following our favorite artists on Facebook and Twitter and Instagram… getting sneak peaks into their creations, interacting with them, but we always forget that these addictive platforms might be distracting artists from what we love most about them: their art. Matt "Lunartik" JOnes has opted to commit social media suicide and has terminated his Facebook page and Twitter account, though he's keeping his YouTube channel. If you want to find out what's happening with JOnes, you'll have to do it the old fashioned way and sign up for his newsletter.
