Mattahan
Saturday, May 16th, 2009Mattahan, born Paul Davey is someone I admire as much as any man. He is a DeviantArt legend. Not only is he a brilliant artist, but he has focused at least some of his creative zeal on icons. ‘Icons?’ you ask? Yes, icons. Those small, seemingly insignificant collections of pixels that you click on to open files, applications and other such widgets on your computer, mobile phone or other electronic device.
It’s all a bit weird, but you know me, I love weird. The perspectives he uses are all just that little bit off centre, so things don’t quite look right, bu still look really cool.
Be advised, the icon collections are quite sizable, but they come in PNG format with a cool script to convert them to ICO files for Windows.
I’m hoping he’ll release some more stuff soon, but until then, you can check out his collection at http://mattahan.deviantart.com/
