I like this header I found in a trade journal. It uses trendy icons like coffee for the type in a clever way. Paul is always saying the same thing, that designers set whats cool and whats not.

I dont know what kind of style you would say this design has but I like the roughness and playfullness of it since its about "weird kids" making money in the art field.

This is from Communication Arts magazine. This design is simple and sexy. Sex sells and its also playing on the name Sundance by using a Native American woman in the cliche old truck.

HUMOR! I dont remember where I aquired this one, but it was so funny I had to hang on to it. I could see it being on some kind of alternative gift card or something. The psychadelic type matches well with the imagery.

Another one from Communication Arts magazine. I dont care so much about the message, but the look is kind of like a comic or graphic novel or something, I definately like the under exposed people next to the stamped text.

Another image playing with humor and wit. Nice color scheme with reds and oranges which fits both angst and zen.
