EDIT: 4/21/08
I realized this morning I used the wrong blending mode on the knob shadows (soft
light instead of hard light) when I was converting the file. It's fixed now.
=========
An entry to Simple-ism's minimalism
project.
I originally drew this katamari for work. A team wanted to incorporate a
katamari in their internal logo, and one of the graphic designers, knowing I
liked Katamari (as evidenced by my previous Katamari walls on my work desktop)
tapped me to create it for them. Hence the usage of Google primary colors, the
blobby highlights and bold outlines. It reminded me of another illustration I
did that involved bowling
for Lava Lamps. Except that bowling with a katamari would result in some...
interesting outcomes. I thought it was an amusing idea so I took the katamari
and added some bowling pins to them to create this.<
"This is how we bowl" is a phonetic pun on "this is how we
roll" -- and this is certainly bowling, Katamari style.
Inspiration for the wallpaper comes from the clean and minimalistic Google
style. And all the amazingly awesome Google icons my coworkers create.
