The Home of (C/Q)uiss
After the short trip to the world of science fiction, it had to be something of a “higher cultural value” again.
Since the release of Douglas R. Hofstadter’s book “Gödel, Escher, Bach”, computer scientists appreciate the artwork of M. C. Escher, if not earlier.
So this simple adaption of his well known “Metamorphosis” images suggested itself.
Why not trying an entirely different type of classic? Still one of my favourite movies – this means the first/original one only…
No pop art this time, but a well known image nevertheless.
Another classic piece of pop-art that had to be done.
And perfectly fitting with the shape of a mug…
Pop art the third… …this time a mug.
After having failed with the “Lichtenstein” design one year before, it had to be done now. I think, I’ve found a way to put all the necessary items into it – the name “cFos”, the “Practice Random…” line and the “42”, of course.
The second Pop-Art T-Shirt.
First, I planned doing a Lichtenstein based image. I already had done some sketches, but none of them really worked. Neither the company name nor the “Practice Random…” line could be integrated into them in a smart way.
Then I saw a Haring poster hanging on a wall and it took only a few minutes to get the final design.
For quite a long time I didn’t have a good idea for the next shirt, so I decided to follow the motto “I recover my property wherever I find it”.
Actually, I liked this kind of playing around with a pop-art classic. So I decided to do it the same way for the next years.
The first in a series of T-shirts and mugs for the cFos Software GmbH.The printed version didn’t look as good as expected, the printing company wasn’t able to get it done properly.
Not that hard to figure out, if you know some German…
