A Few of My Favourite Sneakers with Matt Sewell

Art & Sole blog invited UK illustrator Matt Sewell to take part in their on going series A Few of My Favorite Sneakers in which selected image-makers draw their favorite sneakers especially for Art & Sole.

"I spun it round a bit as a series of 80′s casual look-a-likers and simple New Balances and Nikes wouldn't of been that interesting so i decided to do a series of sneakers that reminded me of birds. Some people see faces whilst other people see cocks or tits in everything. Me, I see birds, always have. In particular I see them in cars, buildings, people and trainers…"- Matt Sewell
