Recently, I had the honor of crossing paths with a digital designer who enjoys mixing it up. His name is Dan Landrum. You can find him at http://appleeyedesign.com/.
It all began with some scans of mail art I sent out long ago. This piece was sent to Jane Smith in 2012…
Dan played with it and it became this…
He didn’t stop there. Read on to see more before and after photos…
And…
And…
And…
What I like most about Dan’s digital renditions is that he is recycling art, creating something new from something old, collaborating with artists and bringing new life to their work. He wastes no supplies in so doing and everything is stored in the ether.
Imitation is said to be the best form of flattery, but I disagree. I believe that the best form of flattery comes when someone is inspired to add to, or manipulate a piece of your work.
Here, Dan uses an old scan of ‘A Study in Blue’ to illustrate my point…
Happy Trash to you, until we meet again!
