The practice of typographic layout must balance the necessity of communication alongside aesthetic sensibilities.

In short, the typographic designer can be seen as an arbiter of the visualization of language.

In the Fifties and Sixties, Pop Art changed the face of the art world, blending techniques from mass production with artistic intent to introduce new ways of creating and looking at paintings – a path that eventually led us here, to digital art. In this issue, illustrator Kyle T Webster takes a look at how we can re-create Pop Art digitally. We’re all about technique this issue, from cutting edge to classical. Simon Buckroyd is sharing his tricks for painting a stellar Sci-Fi scene on p30, and on p58 Anne Pogoda
demonstrates the secrets of a successful landscape painting to help you create imaginative settings. In our Art Study on p52, Cat Bounds tackles a subject that caused controversy in the art world up until the 19 Century – how to paint a realistic horse.

The zig-zag is one of our favorite brochure formats because it looks so good with so little effort—in small quantities you can even make it on your desktop. Rotate a legal-size sheet into landscape format, straight-cut its top edge at an angle, then fold it like an accordion into four panels. Color-key its zig-zag tabs, and you’ll have an energetic brochure suitable for topics of all kinds.
