I am following the sneaker magazine ConceptKicks since I am student.

A bit of story: This site showcases some student and professional designer artwork in the sneaker industry. It inspired me a lot, and kept me motivated when I was student. I dreamt to be as good as these people who are featured inside. Today, I feel honoured  to be one of them.

– Thanks Mr Bailey, founder of Concept Kicks to keep us inspired.

Yesterday, I saw a great picture from Catwalks that the site showcased. It was unexpected and shows a lot of motion. That’s how I started the sketch of the day.

Catwalks are great inspiration

The duet of pen I used. Paper mate FLAIR UF felt pen tip, and a Frixion ball slim.

The Frixion ball is actually a ballpoint pen that you can perfectly erase the ink. I don’t want to talk much about it, as I do not recommend it for beginners to start with. Ahah. It’s an awesome pen. You should try it out once !

The slim version of the Frixion ball is damn sharp ! Love it.


If you like fashion, and also feel that their eccentricity are inspirational, leave a comment !
