Edo Ball: Basketball Portraits in the Style of Ukiyo-e Classic Japanese Illustrations

Ryan Nance April 26, 2017

"Some are based on Japanese mythology and culture, others are narratives based on players nicknames and some are created from popular sayings from the game of basketball."

Melbourne-based illustrator and art director Andrew Archer created this illustration series of basketball stars in the style of Ukiyo-e: Edoball.
