#commercialart — Public Fediverse posts

Richard Amsel has long been my favorite commercial artist. He worked primarily in the entertainment field, and painted Nancy Reagan for the cover of TV Guide in 1985, shortly before dying of complications from AIDS. He was 37 years old. I did not know he was gay or died young until last week. #amsel #richardamsel #commercialart #commercialartist #commercialartwork #art #arting #artist #paint #painting #painterly #portrait #portraits #celebrity #celebrityportrait #celebrityportraits

Pixel Art as Metaphor: Graduation as Leveling Up
Most video games are built around progression. One of the most common mechanics is earning experience points to advance to the next level. “Level up” has become such a widely understood phrase that it translates easily across industries, as seen in this graduation-themed gift card for Target.

Video games introduced visual concepts that didn't exist before gaming. 
Pixel art illustration can translate those conventions into clever metaphors.

Thank you, Kathryn @kathrynmathias ! (GREAT art website, https://mymodernmet.com, once you suppress all the popup ads.)

And thank you, Maria @MariaHill , for the milk cartons, and the thread leading to the commercial art of Vera Svereva.

Herb Alpert's Tijuana Brass – Whipped Cream & Other Delights*
Label: A&M Records – SP-4110 (D)
Format: Vinyl, LP, Album, Stereo
Country: Canada
Released: 1965
Genre: Jazz, Latin
Style: Latin Jazz

I'm a sucker for this cover, so I jumped at the chance to pick up a sealed copy. $5 CAD at a local record fair.

Yeah, it's almost a cliché to have in a collection, but it makes me smile.

I also have a fairly good play copy, so this will stay in the shrink and be displayed appropriately :)

“Blast Furnace”, Clive Gardiner, Empire Marketing Board 1927-1933 poster.

In the late 1920s and early 1930s, Britain attempted to direct its trade towards the Empire through an advertising campaign led by the Empire Marketing Board. The posters were great but ultimately unsuccessful. #graphicart #poster #commercialart #illustration #industrial

Generative AI images have no copyright protection. So, in addition to not being #FineArt #Art, they're also largely unusable for #CommercialArt.

A #protip thread for artists about working w/ commercial clients:
When you do client work for ad agencies, design studios, etc it’s important to establish PRECISELY what you're providing for the rate.

It helps to proceed as if your #commercialart clients understand NOTHING about what you do. In your contract or letter of agreement, specify sizes, dpi, format, layered or unlayered, # of revisions, & the schedule for each milestone.

Negotiate a rate for changes & rush work.
