This Is EXPENSIVE!


I Can Read Movies was so much fun, we had    get  Expensive, too. Our impression is that Mr. Spacesick's playing us with his title, while poking fun at the modern art community to boot.  Expensive  is an eye - popping, eye-crossing hue combo  in simple style and a signature that can't be missed. What do you dabblers think?    Here's a helpful hint:  To form your own opinion on  what Spacesick's up to with Expensive -- jump over to his Flickr gallery HERE.    Tons of fun, cheaper than MoMA!

Spacesick: I Can Read Movies...Can You?


Who wouldn't think they're the luckiest person on earth if they found these amazing paperbacks hidden in a dark and dusty corner of a second-hand bookshop?   Well, not us -- because if we did, it could only mean the doctor missed a brain tumor during our last physical.  These super-cool semblances of movie adaptations aren't books; they're just a few of graphic designer Spacesick's I Can Read Movies poster series.


We think they've got that minimalistic vibe going on, too -- but Spacesick kicks it up a notch. The results are hyper-real, whatever that means, but it sounds about right to us. How else can you explain the post-mod pastels and vintage iconography rendered like the cover of a 1961 Tony Burgess novel?  Yeah, we didn't think so! Plenty more of the hyper-real on Spacesick's Flickr HERE.
