Syd Mead, the future of US Steel
Fantastic illustrations of how the future would be, as seen from the 60’s. Magnificent illustrations, I think they are still relevant today in their use of light, colour and composition. Simply brilliant.

6teen

6teen is a successful teenager TV show, but I am not sure what to think. I admire the illustration style, it’s sexy, stylish, sassy. Which is NOT what I want my pre-teen (or even my teen) girls to be watching and taking as role models of what they should aspire to look like or behave.

Would YOU want your 16 year old daughter to look like this? Or - is this the role model against which 16 year olds should be measured against? If you have anything but stunning looks, perfect hair and accessories, and all the boys in the show want to have sex with you, then you are probably going to be quite unhappy.
Anyways, I did some looking around, and some people say the style is similar to Luc Latulippe, who certainly has some great illustration works. Please visit him!

The stories of three teenage girls who love to accesorise and save the world á la Charlie’s Angels while being the popular girls in high school. They have been known to change outfits and hairdos several times per episode. It must be written somewhere that you can’t be a heroin if you don’t look like a beauty pageant queen.


I love the style, the dynamics of the trio, the graphic strength and colourfulness of the show. Although at first I disapproved the content (good girls have to look stunning and accessorise if they want to be anything in life) a second inspection shows that their clothing is not as risque as I had originally thought. It could be worst. They could be Bratz slutz.
