It's time for a quality Friday Remix. Be warned strong language through out!

Humour for friday: Photoshop disasters

My my what a big hand you have Mariah!

Found this site earlier and it is hilarious. Photoshop disasters is a blog dedicated to exactly what you would expect. The best part is that all the images submitted are commercial which means that these images were butchered by designers that should know better!

Calling all artists!

This year we launched our latest artist series which we print from time to time. This series is called the Creative Commons Gallery. We print images created/selected/nominated by you, our fans. These cards are distributed in over 300 City Card venues nationwide. Any images that we would consider printing must have a Creative Commons Attribution No Derivatives license. This type of license means that we would print the image without altering it and would credit the author on the reverse of the card.

Above is an image of one of our City Card racks in situ and below is one of our past Creative Commons Gallery cards.

To suggest an image simply email emily@thepictureworks.com with your ideas.

Inspiration: Fecal Face

Came across this site yesterday. It is rich in both content and imagery. Theres so much to see I almost didn't know where to start. I quickly got over that as soon as I saw the word street artist in the interview section.

Graduate Exhibitions

You can still catch the graduate exhibitions if you have not yet been. Its worth a visit to see the emerging talent from Ireland's finest art colleges. IADT finishes up tonight (12th June), NCAD runs until the 14th June, DIT runs until the 20th June and Crawfords begings on the 16th June.
