Ligature Volume 6: John Beach Out Now
An innovative micro-site by and about artists making unusual connections featuring Volume 6: John Beach, March 2009.
Seattle, WA, March 05, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Ligature Online today announced the release of Ligature Volume 6: John Beach.
Designer-illustrator-artist John Beach has been running his own show out of a flat in Hollywood, CA for over 20 years, and you can instantly see from the depth and breadth of his work that he’s got the chops to hang with the best of the best. But according to Big Fig, “the guy is so humble, it was like pulling teeth to get him to contribute something to our little zine.”
Spanning disciplines, the clarity of John’s thinking and the elegance of his design shines through each and every solution he arrives at. His work is a treasure trove of innovation, whether he is producing a hot-pink & chocolate quilt for Target, a delicate surface pattern for Disney, or a cuddly, quilted penguin plush for Starbucks, John’s rigorous approach never ceases to amaze.
According to Beach: “If there are any kernels of truth to be found in this business, I think one of the most important is finding that piece of the puzzle that brings you the artist, into alignment with the client: that magical thing called a symbiotic relationship.”
