Christian Ward, if you still does not know him ( OMG, it is almost imposible), is a UK based illustrator. According to the Christian Ward website: “…was born 30 years ago and has been pretty much drawing ever since. Along the way, he has developed a fetish for drawing mysterious femme fatales, psychedelic mind clouds and men in capes trying to look dangerous”

The Wild and Tender Photography of Rodolphe Simeon

2 Comments

Rodolphe Simeon is a french photographer living in Canada. And this is not the only thing mixing cultures in his life: he speaks French, English and German.

The first time I saw his pictures was in the brazilian magazine Zupi,which I recommend to read or at least to visit its site. They defined his work as bizarre, agressive and violent. And that is true. Just take a look at the series of Street or the M-People and you have to agree with them: scissors, blood, abnormalities, sexuality and violence. A dangerous and attractive mix.

Friday Findings – UI Stencils

6 Comments

I really didn’t stumble onto this on Friday but it sounds better that Saturdays Surprise, right!? Anyways, if you are a web designer / ninja like me you will probably find these UI Stencils very useful. You can use them to create wireframe websites and throw them like ninja stars (although I don’t really recommend throwing them, maybe just a toss?). Check out these products from UI Stencils.

Oh and remember to follow me (Jake Mize) and Mr. Mugnai on Twitter!
