This is an illustration I did for a calendar promoting the Polish Ecology Education Foundation and their campaign about segregating electronic waste. I stylized it in the manner of old school Polish ecology illustrations, that I loved as a little kid.
What’s good people. This is a promo piece commissioned by Piana Magazine . “Piana” is “foam” in Polish sooooooo that’s that, hope y’all figure it out. Bye Bye,

Me and Niebieski Robi Kreski got invited to Metz, France to paint a quick mural in a spot on a local skatepark. We painted some roosters, since we’re that ignorant that it was the most symbolic French thing for us.Check out more photos!
Eyo, what’s good my friends and enemies? I always write about myself on this blog and today I’ve decided not to. I’m going to start a new series, where I show my favorite artists from Poland. Since I still get hits on my blog from the States, I wanna expose some fresh Polish talents. Not those, who are already established and famous in the “art world”, but the younger ones- the ones that are rising and are still not well known to the majority, but hopefully will be on the top soon. Enjoy!
(These artists are not posted in any particular order)
Im psyched to announce that Polish rapper Małpa’s LP- “Kilka Numerów o Czymś” (which I designed the cover for) went gold this summer. I got my own copy of the gold record!!! Look at me now!
What’s goin on brothers and sisters? Been some time I’ve posted here, sorry about that. I hope that somebody actually cares and you’ve been waiting for this day that I write again so here it is.
I recently had a solo show in Warsaw, right by my apartment on Żoliborz in the Mały Format Cafe. I showed a small selection of my work- mostly personal illustrations, but also a couple album cover designs, sketchbooks and comic books I did. Also there was a video being screened in front of the cafe, showing my process of designing the cover for Rebel Fleet 2, the new mixtape by Lowercase. Thanks to everyone that came, and fuck all you haterz that didn’t come. We still smokin, what?
Check out this crazy ass video from the opening (shot my my homeboy Bidi) !

Hello! It has been a while. The piece you see above this text is a coffin design for the coffin catalog- a poster promo thing for the Polar Bears agency that I am now a part of. Polar Bears supports Polish artsits (from design to street art) globally. I’m really psyched about it- it feels like I’m a musician that just got signed or something along that line. For the first promo project we decided that each artists designs a coffin in preparation for the Apocalypse that is coming up. My coffin is titled “My Final Ride” and is designed specifically for all those people who enjoy horses and horseback riding. Check out the Polar Bears site and also all the other coffins on their facebook. Peeeeeeeace!

This is a piece titled “Man, do I love dalmatians!” and as you can see it talks about a person who really does like dalmatians. I made up this idea back in college for an illustration assignment about obsessions- but the teacher chose a different idea . I’ve been really wanting to draw it though and been waiting for the perfect time to draw it. I finally found some time, so here it is! Much love,
Alek
I decided to knock out my colored pencils for the first time in a while (I have really expensive prisma color set which i rarely use coz its so damn expensive) and this is what came out- a raging, angry turtle- pissed off at life, pissed off at his every-day turtle problems, pissed off at the people, he has to deal with, pissed off at grinding so hard, he barely has time for his friends and family. Hope you enjoy this- see you next time-

Ey. hello everybody, how’s it going? Today is the last day of January and tomorrow is the first day of February and I’ve been thinking that February is gonna be a very good month for me all throughout… First of all I have a group show on Feb 4th in Space Gallery, SF with a couple of dope artists, which I am not gonna be able to attend (since I’m in Poland now) but YOU should attend it if you live in that area. Read more about it here.
Second of all I got some really cool commissions I’m working on/have finished and I’m shitting my pants with excitement but unfortunately can’t show you them yet- so come back here in 2-3 weeks and find out fo yourself.
And third of all is also a big secret so wait for “third of all” as well!
Meanwhile check this out- an ad for 79th I did which will be printed in driving school booklets.
Much love,
yo boy Alek
