Ah, yes– it’s the summer movie on everyone’s horizon! Here’s a cover illustration we did for Greece’s Cinema magazine. KAAAAAAAPOW!
Wowee! We’ve been away for a blink but are back now and ready to start sharing some illustrations we’ve done lately and perhaps a few reviews related to where we’ve been! This is a recent illustration we created for Radar Magazine, focused on historic signs of downward economic trends (feminists in the news, horror movies, and low-low-lower hemlines)!
Recent Gluekit illustration for New York magazine article about the downward spiral of Wall Street and the US economy. The column chronicled a whole lot of bad news– we thought it sounded pretty earth-shattering– so we came up with a cracked patina to give the illustration a doomed, apocalyptic feel.
Recent Gluekit illustration for Rolling Stone’s Top 10 list!
The story focused on Lindsay Lohan’s reported kissing and snuggling with Samantha Ronson, and the coincidental popularity of Katy Perry’s single “I Kissed A Girl.”
Recent Gluekit illustration for Milwaukee Magazine’s July 2008 report “Devil in Disguise: The Nun Who Abused Boys.” The subject matter is gruesome and tragic, which can be difficult themes to illustrate thoughtfully and respectfully. Luckily, we had some great art direction for this piece, which helped bring it to a good place.
Hot off the presses! We are supremely excited and thrilled to have created this week’s Newsweek cover!
It was a terrific experience, especially since we were guided in our work by thoughtful and precise art direction. A good dollop of humor goes a long way, especially when accompanied by a clear and articulated concept– collaboration heaven! And for our international friends, we also did the overseas cover, which features the world’s most popular unpopular leaders. So, happily, this week we can say we’ve got everyone covered!

Here’s a postcard featuring some type play that Gluekit created for the Yale University Art Gallery. The event being promoted with this postcard was an end-of-the-year celebration for students involved at the Gallery, and their families. The play with angles and curves– which often occurs in type created for the Gallery– reference the Louis Kahn building in which part of the Gallery is housed.
Stripes still make us happy over here in Gluekit land!
