YI & KUANG
Here’s two pieces I did for Li-Ning’s Basketball campaign. Li-Ning is the current leader in sports apparel in China who also endorses the NBA’s Baron Davis, Evan Turner, Shaq & Damon Jones.
Being that I’m a huge basketball fan this was an offer I couldn’t pass up on. Plus…I’m Chinese!
The two characters pictured here were loosely based on Evan Turner (left) and Baron Davis (right). Believe it or not all of the effects in terms of the strokes were done traditionally by brush on rice paper. Tobias Kwan then added all of the beautiful digital colors and effects to the piece afterwards. The man is one talented mofo!

Amazing art!, one of my friend is going to China soon, I’ll tell him to take some pictures if the marketing material is out.
Cheers!
