Retinart

Magical Snap - 2010.06.21 13.55 - 004 

 

While looking around for what I could find on the net regarding Reid Miles (see this previous post), I soon came across the Retinart-blog. Man, oh man… What a nice one!

Retinart is written by Alex Charchar, a graphic designer from Australia. The blog seems to have been dormant for a while, but now Mr. Charchar is back on track, presenting us with two lengthy posts a week. He really takes his time to flesh out a topic, which makes Retinart first and foremost a blog to read, not just skim through. Add to that the fact that this is one of the more beautifully designed blogs I’ve seen in a while and you will understand why I only reluctantly point you into Mr. Charchar’s direction for a visit, afraid you wont be back anytime soon…

To wet your appetite: a selection of the headers he designs for each article (which will also give you some idea of the topics being discussed).

What a wonderful mention :)

Thank you so very much for the kind words! I'm so glad you see Retinart as a blog to be read, rather than skimmed -- that's exactly why I spend hours researching and writing for each article, aiming to give some real content.

I also really appreciate that you went back to some of the older articles and showed the artwork here

Thanks again!

Glad you liked the post.

Blogs like yours are not only a delight to visit and read, but make me think about future possiblities for my own blog. The way you combine thorough content with humor and good design is very inspirational.

All the best,

Gilliom
