It’s always fascinating to track overlapping color palettes.  Now that we’re in the thick of spring and bright colors have again become the norm, it’s worth noting that linear jumbles are continuing to pop up around town and throughout the web.  This gouache painting by Pattern Pulp favorite, Amy Soczka, appeared on her blog, Things That Make My Day about a month ago.  Her delicate strokes have a tactile, organic vibe that are particularly heightened beside Depeche Mode’s album art, Sounds of the Universe.  Though it’s doubtful that the designers involved tapped each other for inspiration, it’s no coincidence that their environmental influences overlapped.
