By Peter Max (October 19, 1937 – September 14, 2026), “Cosmic Music City,” designed as a tribute to Nashville. The artist passed away earlier this week. #arthistory #popart #psychedelicart
From Matt Schudel: “If any artist was responsible for defining the visual vocabulary of the 1960s, it was Peter Max, whose vividly fluorescent paintings, posters and graphic imagery were ubiquitous during the era of flower children and the Age of Aquarius.
Countless college dorm rooms of the late ’60s and early ’70s had a Peter Max poster on the wall, next to the burning incense. Through savvy marketing, his pulsating colors and images adorned hundreds of objects — from buses and subways to pantyhose and the soles of sneakers that imprinted his name in the earth and sand.
Mr. Max’s color-saturated, almost hallucinatory depictions of stars, sun rays and people in profile showed up on walls and coffee mugs, on clothing, clocks, stationery, and even airplanes and cruise ships. In some ways, Mr. Max created the graphic equivalent of the rock-and-roll revolution in music.” ~ Matt Schudel, “Peter Max, whose psychedelic art came to symbolize the ’60s, dies at 88,” The Washington Post, September 16, 2026.

A Dozen Pages, Part 4 [ZINE]
This is the finishing post to a part of our zine project dubbed "A Dozen Pages". That is not a title, this part of the project has no title, these twelve pages were my contribution to a group project, the result of which was the abstract graphic novel A Kick in the Eye (2013). I will be sharing more abstract comic pages (for you to download and print!) at some point in the future, but right now I am not sure what I will post. It would be nice if The Fourth Labor of Elmer Olpuk finally saw the light of day, but that particular tale needs quite a bit of work. The twenty-four pages of My Favorite Martian Comics might be easier to post, but that is a huge commitment. I would like to add "Harrow" to our project, it is only five pages long, but it has an awkward square format - and I am not sure where I ferreted away its file. I hope I can find it, it would be a shame to lose it. […]https://vraic.wordpress.com/2026/09/18/a-dozen-pages-part-4-zine/

Work Interrupted (1891) by William-Adolphe Bouguereau (1825-1905). His strict adherence to a realistic, classical style gained him widespread acclaim in France and the United States at the same time that the Impressionist painters were struggling to establish a different approach. The luminous color and delicate, almost invisible brush strokes are hallmarks of Bouguereau's work.
