We’ve been having a cool time here at BerlinBonez working on some new stuff. This time it’s not new T-Shirts but a line up of stickers. We know - people love stickers. So why did it take us so long to get off our arses and put some together?..... Well, the BerlinBonez hard drives are full of graphics that we work on as projects move on and there’s loads of stuff that didn’t turn into a T-Shirt or that did, but would also be a great sticker. In fact there’s just too much of it! If there’s one thing I’m not fast at it’s making my mind up. And the big problem with a computer is that the variations are endless. Back in the days when I did a Fanzine on a photo copier it was draw, cut, paste and hit the button – not much room for trying it this way or that – not even any colour to think about! Today working on a sticker line with a drive full of digital creative goo-goo I spend ages (and some) agonizing over all the details and trying hundreds of variations to get the set looking right. In fact doing a little run of stickers is a bit like working on a bunch of paintings all at the same time and, come to think of it, when I used to paint I hardly ever got round to finishing anything – it was just too much heart ache committing to the direction the picture was supposed to be going in and I just moved on to the next idea. Anyway I think it’s been worth all that creative angst, and the nail biting; the presses should be warming up at the printers and the stickers will be on COMING SOON! Come back and check the store later and watch for some competitions to win sets. Maybe BerlinBonez will “have a little bag for you”….(Thanks Frank) Add Comment Berlin City Cool PICS 04/16/2011
Wandering around Berlin with no particular place to go and a camera always throws up some cool images. It´s amazing all the graphics, objects and scenes that pop into the view finder. Living in Berlin makes BerlinBonez happen. All this KOSMIK GOO-GOO gets washed through my brain, filtered, cross fertilized and regurgitated. Its a Chemical Marriage of urban imagery. I use all this GRUNGE plus that SPARK INSIDE to produce those T-Shirts, Stickers and Buttons we all love soooo much. |
