Creative Sidewalk Chalkboard Art by Ollie Wolff Pruitt

September 9, 2016 by Chris Durso

pruitt-chalkboard

Sidewalk chalkboards may seem like an antiquated way to drive customers in. However, when used correctly, that chalkboard could become a business’ best form of marketing.

This series, by Ollie Wolff Pruitt, proves this. Pruitt started creating chalkboard signs for her friend’s bar in Dahlonega, Georgia. The sidewalk art not only helped improve business, but was also featured in a local newspaper, giving the artist and bar some great free publicity.

Of course, Pruitt doesn’t just list the happy hour and food specials on her chalkboards. What gets people in the door is Pruitt’s creative use of illustration, typography and wordplay. Occasionally, she even borrows ideas from comic masters such as The Oatmeal.

See more below and over on Pruitt’s imgur page.

Artist Reinterprets Brand Logos With Hand-drawn Illustration and Typography

August 12, 2016 by Chris Durso

nutella-hand-drawn

Graphic artist and calligrapher, David Milan, has a new project for the brand-loyal typophiles out there.

David uses his illustration and lettering skills to recreate familiar brand logos by hand. Nutella becomes even more appealing [if that’s even possible] with an elegant hand-drawn typeface — while 7-11 now looks nothing like the place you’d find murder-dogs and Slurpees at.

Check out more below, and more of Milan’s work over on Instagram.

Breakup Cakes and Pies Will Let You Down Easy

February 18, 2016 by Chris Durso

Breaking up is hard to do. So, to help make the process a bit easier, artist Isabella Giancarlo is encouraging the breaker-upper to become a baker.

Eat Your Heart Out is a fun project that takes the most passive-aggressive and cliché break-up lines, and turns them into delicious baked goods.

So, imagine how much easier it will be, to not have to write an impersonal text or email. And, for the heartbroken, there’s always pie. Giancarlo is actually encouraging submissions for breakup lines here.

Using the appropriate food, the words are created and styled by hand on the appropriate background. See the process in the video below.
