Puzzle Walls


Figuring out what to paint is challenging. Incorporating puzzle patterns to be part of that painting is even more difficult. Pulling it off flawlessly every time is mind boggling, and that's exactly what MrKas does on a regular basis.

The talented aerosol painter was born and raised in Portugal and is a regular participant in street art festivals. His work can be seen in countries such as China, Malaysia, UAE, Indonesia, Italy, Greece, Malta, France, The Netherlands, Finland, Portugal and Ireland. Make sure you've got some time to kill before checking out his Instagram, because you might have difficulty turning away, just like me.





Despite the size and diversity of Tanauan, it still has the charm and atmosphere of a small town. I really like it here. Unfortunately, Tanaueños generally have no or only limited access to art. MrKas, please paint our city walls.

Nike Blazer Mid 77 Scribble

When I was in high school, doodling on kicks was a thing. How cool to come into class, learn a few things, then walk out with a pair of scribbled-on sneakers. Even today, many basketball stars are using their shoes for much more than performance. Take a close look at their trainers and you'll find messages written all over. Now Nike is celebrating the process with the release of its Blazer Mid 77 Scribble. Aside from the hand-drawn sidewall Swoosh, the shoe also has smaller notes hidden all over, including the style name and the year it was made. The tongue is also equipped with the brand's logo, which has been hand-drawn in black. I really like the design, especially the imperfect lines. And since we're talking about scribbled-on sneakers, I can't not mention Niko Pelaez . He's a true shoe-drawing machine!  [h/t: Sneaker News ]

The Salimbaa

Here's a strange tribal instrument I never heard of before now. Originally from the Tinananon tribe of southern Philippines, the bowl-shaped Salimbaa is made of metal and wood, has 30 bronze wound strings, and is played using two small sticks.  Caleb Byerly, who makes lost/extinct musical tools in his North Carolina workshop, has an interesting story on how he made his first Salimbaa.

The Art of Alice Pasquini

I got introduced to Alice Pasquini's work via Twitter a few hours ago and was immediately intrigued by her art, which revolves around topics of femininity and independent women. A little intro: She graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome, and works as an illustrator, set designer and painter. She has lived and worked in the U.K, France, and Spain, and has completed projects with international brands, such as Canon, Nike, Range Rover, Toyota, and Microsoft. From large murals to small canvasses, Alice's creativity shines through in every city she visits, thanks to her unique style. It's impossible to choose favorites because they're all stunning and you'll have to go to her website to experience them all.
