Wanna Chuck?

NoPattern Designs by Chuck Anderson

Don’t hate Chuck Anderson because he’s a genius.

Sure, at only 22, the self-taught graphic artist runs his own design company, NoPattern, and woos clients like Absolut, Reebok, and Nike (to name a few).

But he also remembers the little guy. So he continues to work in his Bloomington, Illinois, studio creating trippy photo prints, clothing, and illustrations for regular people like you.

Using a combination of photography, drawing, and computers, Anderson’s designs are dreamy, vibrant, and simultaneously retro and futuristic (kooky line drawings and Photoshop do the trick). Clouds, flowers, and funky light patterns make an appearance in his work.

Anderson’s also a Scrabble aficionado, good-looking, and an incredibly nice person.

Oh, okay. Go ahead and hate him just a little.
