Sneaker Lines Illustrations by Vedran Lukic


Sneaker Art these days have become a dime a dozen. At one point the idea of sneaker art was something new and sometimes hard to run across so when we find a piece or gallery or work done the right way we have to show love.

Vedran Lukic presents this set of illustrations called "Sneaker Lines". The simple and minimally designed series focuses on the silhouette and lines of some classic sneakers you should know right away. The set of three illustrations is a perfect example of the "right" way sneaker art should be done if you ask us. Make sure to check out Vedran's work directly here and continue below for larger shots of each work.

Kendrick Lamar Illustration by Michael Walchalk

With the catastrophy that occured last night in LA that is the Grammys its only right that we show a little love to the man who has given the world one of the best albums, regardless of genre, in the last 10 years. The fact that K Dot didnt take home one award really proves how out of touch The Grammys truly are with what is right and wrong in the music industry.

This may prove to be good for the Compton MC as it will only serve as fuel for more inspirational and groundbreaking content once his next project drops. Give it up one time for the peoples champ with this minimal illustration of Kendrick Lamar done my Michael Walchalk which you can purchase here.
