Chineasy

When ShaoLan Hsueh realised her children didn't have the patience to learn Chinese, she wanted to simplify it for them – so she worked with graphic artist Noma Bar on a new book that turns a fiendish world into a visual treat called Chineasy. It is a visual-based learning system which teaches Chinese characters, simple stories & phrases. This building block system allows learners learn speedily with great fun enjoying Chinese history, classical and pop culture.

Beside the beautiful website full of colourful illustrations you can order a book on iTunes (few left as a hardcopy here) that ShaoLan has kickstartered a few months ago to keep Chinese easy for everyone.

Huge Mural by Sean Sullivan

"After 7 long months of obsessively scribbling away on a large wall, artist Sean Sullivan “threw in the towel,” in part because he had exceeded his allotted time period by 4 months! The resulting mural was “Grand Pale Maw,” an expansive wall drawing that encompassed the entire rear corridor space of LACE in LA. Grand Pale Maw—Sullivan’s first large scale mural—was on display only through January 2012 but thanks to these photos documenting the process we can still ogle over them. " via Colossal

We Go to the Gallery

Miriam Elia's new take on a 1960s Ladybird book. Peter, Jane and Mummy go to a gallery and learn about sex, death and contemporary art. She successfuly ran first thousand prints through Kickstarter project but it is the Ladybird book publisher Penguin, rather than the art world, which isn't so happy about the project. We hope she resolve the legal issues this spring and we will have a chance to order the book from her website.
