deanne cheuk: redefining the line

28
it’s so secret that i’m a huge, huge deanne cheuk fan. she was one of my first choices for the d*s desktop wallpaper series (click here to download deanne’s free, original designs!) and is always my go-to girl when i’m thinking of working on a new project. she’s just the coolest.

so when i heard from alexandra duron at the california state university fullerton main art gallery about a new exhibition featuring deanne’s work- i was immediately excited. deanne is part of a new show called “redefining the line: art nouveau & the female figure” that will feature10 talented artists presenting vibrant graphic design, illustration and installation work. deanne will be sharing original drawings that were creating for her book “mushroom girls virus” and have never been exhibited before. i just love the way deanne works with soft, gradually fading color. you can find out more right here, but if you’re in the area be sure to stop by the show’s opening on august 29th from 5-8pm. the show will run through october 2nd. thanks to alexandra duron and sarah strozza (the show’s curators) for the tip!

*stay tuned for a new “we like it wild” garden post at 2pm today!

HOLY CRAP! This is insane. I graduated from CSUF (BFA, graphic design) in 2005, and was always a big fan of Deanne Cheuk’s illustrations. I am totally surprised to see my old school a) mentioned on your blog that I look at every damn day, b) is having something so cool happen! I will be there for sure!
