Guillermo Divito

Posted on 4:39 PM by fjtrfjf

I had never heard of Guillermo Divito until joining the amazing Cartoon Retro, a website created by Shane Glines showcasing rare artwork from artists of the 30s, 40s, 50s & 60s. I absolutely LOVE this artist (even though he draws his women with really small heads).

Cartoon Retro has over one HUNDRED more scans of Divito's work (which you cannot find anywhere else on the internet) and I HIGHLY recommend signing up for a membership. The site has literally tons of artists that you have never even heard of.. and they all kick insane amounts of ass. And if you are a young budding cartoonist, then you have no choice but to sign up. I can't even begin to tell you how much Cartoon Retro has helped me improve my drawing skill.

A one months membership is a measly five dollars (you find that kind of money lying around on the sidewalk). So don't be a cheap asshole. Join Cartoon Retro TODAY!!!!

Suspiria

Posted on 7:41 PM by fjtrfjf

Suspiria is a crazy 1970s Italian horror film by director Dario Argento. It is extremely different from most other horror movies I have seen which made me really like it. It has trippy psychedelic lighting, cool compositions and uncomfortably brutal murder scenes. The location of this movie is pretty insane, as are all of the settings/locations in Dario Argento's movies. They normally take place in some ridiculously ornate theater, house or hotel.
