Armed to the teeth with Fresh ideas, Fly School wants to make an apathetic world sit up and take notice. To provoke thought. Rise above. Fly.

Apart from teaching insects to read, Fly School specialises in design, illustration, typography and multi-media.

Fly School applies its expertise across a range of mediums; including web, print, traditional illustration and logos. The goal is to be innovative and original at all times.

Fly School hates mediocrity. Our goal is to inject innovation and originality into everything we do. Maybe it’s a cliché. And maybe it’s a little idealistic. But it’s a goal we believe is worth striving for.

Fly School specialises in illustration, design, multimedia, typography and logos. We also teach insects to read. Hence the name.

If Fly School were the in Top Gun it’d play Tom Cruise’s character. We like to think of ourselves as innovative, original and sometimes a little maverick. Maybe it sounds cliché, and perhaps it doesn’t always inspire confidence. But honestly, when it comes to creativity, unconventional is always better.

Fly School is Jason de Villiers and Shaun Gardener. Neither has a pilot’s license. What they do have is an ever-lengthening list of clients and an impressive portfolio.
Let’s go flying.

If you are in Istanbul the next couple of days you will have the chance to catch AN Illustrator Baysan Yuksel doing a “drawing Performance”.

The performance is called “Can’t Stand Still” and is part of the yearly street festival, Sokakta 3, on Istiklal Street in İstanbul.

Can’t Stand Still is an on going project. The words reflects the discomfort in the artist that she can’t stop drawing and making things. She just can not stand still. The project consists of gallery installations, street installations and performances.

14 August

17:00- 20:00  – Şahkulu Bostan Street

16 August

17:00-20:00- Tunel Square

Ever since I found Cartoon Modern in borders 2 years ago, I have been absolutely glued. It has provided me with endless inspiration from 50s artists and animators including Raoul Dufy, Saul Steinberg, Stuart Davis and studios such as UPA. The vibrant block colours and playful line work is something I love to echo in my own work.
