I don’t typically get excited about the ads on the back covers of magazines, but the Sherwin Williams ad shown above, featuring an ice cream sundae made completely of paint chips, almost made my head explode with its awesomeness when I spotted it recently on the back of one of my magazines. I immediately wanted to know who created this awesome piece of paint chip art, and after a bit of Googling I found out.
Sherwin Williams’ brilliant new Color Chips campaign was created by McKinney and features the work of “paper constructionist” Matthew Sporzynski, whose amazing talent can be seen in the many paper creations he’s made for Real Simple magazine — check out a gallery of his work for Real Simple and be amazed.

I’m also drooling over the two Color Chips television spots, created for the campaign by Buck. Amazing color and animation work.

i saw the tv ad and loved it!
Wow, this is utterly BEAUTIFUL!!!! Inspiring!
Thank you Papercrave for featuring it.
So creative! Saw these in a Graphic Design magazine. Kudos to the creatives behind this great work!
I agree it’s a unique idea but I do not see the beauty behind it. it looks like a very product centric view to advertising, in my opinion. I am not sure how it connects emotionally with the viewers.
love these!
I love that ad!! I didn’t know it was chips that is what brought me to this site and I am excited!! I know, I know. More time than brains!
these ads are amazing, to the doubting Thomas’s out there if you know anything about paper art you’ll know this is not a simple thing to accomplish Kudos to the artists
