Now I know where this past year’s intriguing Penrod signage came from, that motley array of colors and graceful fonts that delicately invoked Monty Python: Eric Kass. Kass is a nationally renowned artist. His works can be seen from Claddagh Irish Pub downtown to national design magazines like Communication Arts Design. Walk into his small, one-room Carmel shop. The retro-minimalist patterned wallpaper you see here is also carried in California boutiques. The framed graphic wall art can be yours for a relative steal. And if you want that bottle-and-rope installation suspended in the middle of the shop, well, that can be yours, too. You really have to delve into the Web site to see his artful graphic design for yourself.
