Mid-Century Design

El Gato Gomez
Inspired by classic retro, Pittsburgh based artist/graphic designer El Gato Gomez has a perceptive eye for mid-century shapes and colours. GG's pencil and gouache pieces are far from mere reproductions..but rather quirky renditions that capture the design spirit of the era in a  captivatingly contemporary way.

Many old design features are recognizable in the paintings - such as boomerangs, elongated cats,  iconic kidney shapes and abstract shapes reminiscent of 1950s modern furmiture.

El Gato Gomez works are hot sellers on ebay and the artist also sells through his own website, which features a gallery of treats. Click the images to check out his many designs.
