Overton Loyd (@overtonloyd), creative director for George Clinton, is apparently a digital finger painter. When he recently upgraded the Inspire iPhone app, he shared this mobile painting and predicted that the art of the future could be created “with fingers by kids raised on iPads.” You can find more of Loyd’s art on his site. You can find more Inspire art in the growing Flickr group.
Last month, Los Angeles illustrator Kevin Dart (@kevindart) announced that he finished this poster, which was inspired by Scott Campbell (@scottlava). The art is a promotional piece for one of many fictional films starring “swinging 60’s spy girl” Yuki 7. The book “Seductive Espionage” invites you to enter Yuki 7′s world, as illustrated in all its futuristic retro-ness by Dart.
I’ve don’t post videos on 140pix, but I think Yuki 7′s ultra-cool theatrical trailer, directed by Dart and animator Stephane Coedel, warrants an exception. Enjoy the animated espionage and if you want to know what it’s like to develop a trailer for a non-existent movie, read this interview with Dart, Coedel and composer Cyrille Marchesseau.
Crewest calls itself “Downtown LA’s premier graffiti gallery.” Its director, Man One (@crewest), is an artist himself and is all over social media. I heard about his art, and the gallery, when Man One shared this piece on Twitter during a recent trip to Monterey Bay. You can see art from Crewest, and more of Man One’s work, on his Flickr page. You can also catch Crewest on MySpace and Facebook. For the latest gallery news, make sure to subscribe to the gallery’s blog and don’t forget to visit crewest.com for everything else.
