The art between the two issues of ''BLAST'' helps define the emotions of Lewis from the effects of the war. The first issue, while harder to follow, is more stylistically complex than the second. The first issue of ''BLAST'' has a more positive aesthetic due to the unique style that was used, which keeps the reader focused on the actual content. It reflects the time and care Lewis spent working on it. The second issue of ''BLAST'' which came out about a year into the war, is almost depressing to look at; however, the actual photos in the second issue are more abstract, which explains the conflict the war has caused. Reading the first issue ''BLAST'' is more pleasing compared to the second issue with the standard, two column nightmare.

The art between the two issues of "Blast" helps define the emotions of Lewis from the effects of the war. "Blast"1 has a more flamboyant aesthetic look  resembling a vortex, which follows the Vorticism movement. You can see how it reflects the time and care Lewis spent working on it. The standard, two column nightmare of the second issue makes that one a lot easier to follow then the first, keeping the reader focused on the actual content. Even thought the actual art is more abstract, this style  is almost depressing to look at, but it makes sense because "Blast" 2 came out about a year into the war. Reading ''BLAST'' 1 is more pleasing compared to ''BLAST'' 2, but the second allows the reader to get a sense of the conflict the war has caused.
