Takashi Murakami, Lari Pittman, ...
Barbara Gladstone Gallery, 2002

The title "Drawing" conjures up images of simple sketches, pencil works and other trite mediums of drawing. However, these works prove that drawing, the element of art that is the product of the artist's mind ...

Beautiful but....
the week starts with a Monday instead of the traditional Sunday. I had a calendar like this a few years ago and was confounded for the next 12 months. So I hung it up for the pictures and use another calendar for everything else.

Excellent Graphic Color Resource!
I would highly recommend this book to anyone in the graphics world, or interested in attempting color graphics. The examples are real life, and excellent choices. And if you like the colors, each example of work has a pantone breakdown, so it can be easily duplicated. If you are looking for a color guide to one and two color graphics... this is a modern update to assist anyones design aspects. ...
