Začal kresbami pomocou pasteliek a postupne sa prepracoval na známeho umelca s vlastnou kolekciou oblečenia. Poznáte umelca menom Rik Lee? Tento 35 ročný australský ilustrátor, momentálne žijúci na Bali, sa väčšinou venuje kresbám žien, ktoré sú neuveriteľne farebné a zamerané na detail. Pohľad na seba upriamia najmä tetovania, ktoré ženy zdobia. [caption id="attachment_276" align="aligncenter" width="500"]

Práca, ktorú Rik Lee robí však neslúži iba na splnenie snov ľudí, ktorí chcú originálne tetovanie, pracoval aj so spoločnosťami ako Ray Ban UK a značkou oblečenia Stussy. Popri rôznych exhibíciam jeho tvorby, sa momentálne venuje aj vlastnej tvorbe oblečenia. Pod značkou Rik & Reg vytvára spolu so svojou umelecky nadanou manželkou prekrásne pestrofarebné kolekcie oblečenia. [caption id="attachment_289" align="aligncenter" width="1064"]

Poháre v Ritual Boutique & Coffee Shop[/caption]
To, že rovnako ako Rik Lee aj jeho žena je umelecky založená, dokazuje aj fakt, že tento rok otvorila kaviareň Ritual Boutique & Coffee Shop na Bali, kde podporuje indonézke značky, umelcov a dizajnérov. Rik Lee sa rozhodol manželku podporiť a v coffee shope sa môžete napiť z pohárov zdobených jeho motívmi.
A better look at the collectible coffee cups I made for @ritualcoffeeseminyak. So stoked to play a small role in this awesome project. Ritual Boutique & Coffee stock independent Indonesian designers and serve darn delicious @simplybrew coffee. If you're in Bali, drop in for your fix ??☕️❤️ #riklee #illustration #coffee #coffeeart A post shared by Rik Lee (@rikleeillustration) on Jun 19, 2017 at 7:44pm PDT
Nezostal však iba pri pohároch a oblečení, naposledy sa venoval aj nástennej maľbe v dome na Bali. Na instagram pridal fotky s hotovým dielom.
Woo! I wrapped up this mural at the beautiful Anggana Villas, Bali, last night. Then got a few snaps of it this morning. I look like an animated character in my own cartoon world. Which is okay by me ???☀️ #riklee #mural #wallart #bali A post shared by Rik Lee (@rikleeillustration) on Sep 12, 2017 at 9:40pm PDT
Na jeho instagrame nájdete mnoho videí, v ktorých znázorňuje proces vzniku jeho kresieb. V súčasnosti začal používať aj transparentný papier, pomocou ktorého sa radí s fanúšikmi a pýta sa na ich názor :).
Your thoughts? I was about to jump onto the colour for this one, but couldn't resist using tracing paper to sketch in some last, extra details. I'm not feeling the bow or palms but, predictably, I like the tattoos. A post shared by Rik Lee (@rikleeillustration) on Aug 28, 2017 at 9:55pm PDT
Sketching a bed of snacks for this babe. ????I draw them roughly first on tracing paper, this way I can reposition the imagery to see where I think they'll work best. I plan to fill the entire background with stuff, so feel free to send me some snack ideas! ???????? A post shared by Rik Lee (@rikleeillustration) on Jul 5, 2017 at 7:17pm PDT
I decided to go with a mix of both outfit ideas and added a few extra details - like the @creepyyeha inspired harness. Now it's tattoo time! Originally I wasn't planning on giving her tattoos, but I can't resist and I'm kinda digging them. The initial sketches are in red and refined drawings in black. I'm leaning toward her just having a few pieces as opposed to covering her with tatts. Your thoughts? Keep them coming, it's rad having others involved in the process ✍???✌?

Rik Lee stvárnil aj známe osobnosti. V jeho kresbách sa objavili napríklad Amy Winehouse, David Bowie a Kurt Cobain. [caption id="attachment_277" align="aligncenter" width="500"]

A couple of months ago I took on one of my largest ever projects, illustrating over 50 portraits of iconic musical figures. I'm working alongside U.K. publishing legends @laurencekingpub and I'm excited to reveal what all these drawings will become. For now though, here's a peek at my progress. #rihanna #johnlennon #mickjagger #kanyewest #kylieminogue #amywinehouse #prince #michaeljackson #jimihendrix #davidbowie #beyoncé #johnnycash #chuckberry #littlerichard #andabunchmore A post shared by Rik Lee (@rikleeillustration) on Jan 3, 2017 at 6:58pm PST
