My new friend Tony over at Neno Design asked me to do the June Calendar for his blog. I knew this really talented artist/designer in college… I think his name is Matt Killroy or something like that. Matt did some crazy designs in this style that really inspired me and this design. I hope you all enjoy… vector “bug” file to follow soon. It has Ben Blogged.

It has been a little while since my last free vector set but I think this one is a lot of fun. These “design elements” can be used to create some very interesting graphics or a tech logo in a matter of minutes… I hope you all enjoy. It has Ben Blogged.

I was cleaning out my email the other day when I stumbled upon one in particular that sparked my memory. The firs time I saw the work “Damen” by Bert Monroy I was blown away. His photo realistic Photoshop work is insane, creative, and downright awe-inspiring. Bert’s work is not only beautiful but a reminder of the importance in labeling layers, using folders, and staying organized. It has Ben Blogged!

The trend of gold leaf and crazy organic designs has taken a somewhat back seat to swirling mist or auroral backgrounds but good design, trendy or not, should stand the test of time. This set of 10 high-resolution Photoshop brushes is “golden” and will add flavor to any design. It has Ben Blogged!

I am a bit embarrassed because the first time I saw this site I just clicked right out, but recently I took a second glance and was pleasantly surprised. Adobe TV has all sorts of educational videos from categories including photographer, designer, video professional, developer, and programs. This site is a great way to pick up some tricks, stay current with Adobe, and kill some time. It has Ben Blogged!
