Desktop Eutopia!
I’ve been longing for pre-OSX and pre-Vista days, when customizing my desktop and UI (Mac or PC) was a pleasurable distraction that I devoted a certain amount of time to every day, like reading a good book on the train.
Since modern (read: less open) operating systems like OS X Leopard and Windows Vista have been introduced, such a pursuit has become more complicated while sitting atop shifting technological sands.
So, my attention moves toward what I can more easily do to tweak my daily user experience at the desktop. And the simplest thing is: changing my desktop wallpaper.
I’m pretty picky about such things, being a designer, mind you. So, finding a fresh collection required some diligence. I’d rather go with basic gray when there’s so much bad wallpaper out there, people. And, there is.
Hallelujah, today, I found desktop wallpaper euphoria when I discovered the works of artist, Vlad Gerasimov at Vladstudio.
Vlad’s works are rich with emotion, depth and detail. There is variety in color and feel enough to satisfy just about any ephemeral desire. The wallpapers are available in aspect ratios and resolutions to fit a wide range of resolutions, including dual monitor setups.
I highly recommend - and encourage - everyone to visit and support Vlad’s work with a lifetime subscription to Vlad’s daily desktop pleasures.
Thank you, Vlad.
Enjoy!
