Allen Jones Lust

Allen Jones is without question one of my all time art heros. While informed by the 60’s Swinging London and Pop Art scenes, his was a much darker and sexier vision. The sculptures in the Korova Milk Bar from the 1971 film A Clockwork Orange were based on works by Jones after he turned down the request by Stanley Kubrick to design the set for “credit only”.

The artwork on the home page of the Some Product site was done as a personal tribute to this incredible visionary artist.

A prolific sculptor, painter, costume designer and illustrator – now 77 years old, he continues to live and work in England.

The Genius Art of Cornelis Makkink

Cornelis Makkink is somewhat of a mysterious and almost mythical figure of the 60’s and 70’s art scene. His beautiful and stylized paintings that appeared in A Clockwork Orange have been seen by millions and his art has inspired me as long as I can remember.

From concept to some product

The successful execution of any idea, often depends on the process. In this particular case we decided the design needed to be created as organically as possible. Using minimal post production the image was carefully constructed by hand and then photographed.

Huge props to Dandi Wind Opaine for all her invaluable help on this project.  xo
