Illustrator Jonny Wan has created a series of drawn portraits that feature characters he has created himself. These tribal-looking portraits combine inspiration from ancient cultures and Victorian aesthetics all put together in a brilliantly colored package.
In his illustrated series, Jonny Wan places emphasis on clothing companies Adidas, Nike and American Eagle, as he features his creative characters sporting the branded clothing. The characters sporting Adidas seem to be put together in an ad, as they are accompanied with the slogan "Celebrate Originality."
These portraits by Jonny Wan are as original as it gets. The characters are beyond awesome and the intricate designs Jonny Wan creates are unrivaled. It has yet to be released if these are ads for the famous clothing companies, although they would definitely grab the attention of anyone passing by them.
