As an experiment, I thought I&#8217;d start recording my screen as I sketch new designs for paintings, then time-lapse the process a bit. The result is kind of like abstract video art. 
I just think that something gets lost when the progression of a design is not recorded step for step. Also, on the way [...]]]></description>

A once-anonymous abstract painting owned by Laurie Pike was recently determined to be the work of legendary hard-edge painter Frederick Hammersley.
The &#8220;found&#8221; Hammersley painting is titled One Pair and is dated 1960.
Frederick Hammersley is one of my favorite painters, and I&#8217;ve written about him considerably.
With Ms. Pike&#8217;s consent, I would like to share the story [...]]]></description>

Over the holidays, I rediscovered my love for detergent boxes &#8212; especially vintage detergent boxes. I love how their graphic swirls and shapes are designed to arrest the eye. Beyond that, there&#8217;s something ineffably cool about the way detergent boxes have &#8220;all-over&#8221; compositions &#8212; they use all available space. [...]]]></description>

From an art and design perspective, I find soccer jerseys are a tremendous source of inspiration. For new and recent jerseys, subside.co.uk is a great place to scan the latest looks of the world&#8217;s clubs. And for vintage shirts, I fancy classicfootballshirts.co.uk; you&#8217;ll find hours of eye-popping color combinations and patterns there.
