Mehr als nur Technicolor, dieses Zeug ist atomar. Es ist so üppig und frisch, ich kann mich kaum enthalten!

Während ich noch nicht geschafft, dieses Foto-Styling an einem Client so weit zu verkaufen, glaube ich, es hat eine Vielzahl von Einsatzmöglichkeiten. So brillant Farbfotos können Energie, Drama, Raffinesse, eine Wissenschaft/Tech-y-fühlen, oder sogar, wenn verwendet mit viel weiß, ein corporate Gefühl.Ganz zu schweigen von den Techniken und Manipulation hinter solch intensive Farbe zu erreichen erfordert eine versierte Hand in Photoshop.

Die meisten der Informationen im Internet über Chicagoer Joey Potts ist ein wenig altmodisch, aber seine Farbschemas sind definitiv nicht. Die Mischung aus bizarr detaillierte Charaktere und Farbpaletten Netzhaut-Versengen ist, was macht seine Arbeit ein Standout für mich. Es läuft wirklich die ganze Skala zu: Malerei und Installation arbeiten, benutzerdefinierte gemalten Spielzeug und Sneakers, und Kleidung Design.Er ist einer von jenen seltenen Rassen, die deren Arbeit über traditionellem Design und bildende Kunst ebenso kreuzt.
