Google Pixel 2 Wallpapers by Leta Sobierajski & Wade Jeffree
We are sharing this very cool project by Leta Sobierajski and Wade Jeffree for the Google Pixel 2. It's a crazy fact that the wallpapers they have worked would be installed on every single Pixel 2 Phone. It's such an accomplishment and another fact that they haven't used any digital tools except for their creativity, hands and a lot of patience. Check them out, it's quite amazing! Props to everyone involved in the project. In 2017, Google invited Wade Jeffree and Leta Sobierajski to create a set of wallpapers for their Google Pixel 2. Our wallpapers would come installed on every Pixel 2 phone, leaving our work in millions of people’s hands. We wanted to reinterpret the notion of abstract expressionism. We were inspired by the paintings that explored this visual language and we sought to make sculptural forms instead—ones that embody the movement and freedom from so many of the paintings.

Sheppard's Stunning Album Cover Design by Ars Thanea
Ars Thanea is an award-winning creative studio based in Warsaw, they have been working and producing some of the best works we have ever seen on ABDZ. The most amazing thing is even after all these years, they still surprise us with their creativity and perseverance to push the limits. Let's take a look at their album design for the indie pop band: Sheppard entitled: Watching The Sky. And as you can see they could have taken a simpler ride with CGI but decided to just hand-crafted. Props to everyone involved in the project. The indie pop band “Sheppard” from Australia, known for the hits such as “Geronimo” or “Let me down easy” approached us to create a cover for the newest album titled “Watching The Sky”. This time we decided to use true glass as the essential material. As the result, we blew several dozen little bubbles to create a real glass cloud sculpture. And once again, hand-crafted work turned out to be the greatest choice!

He has an incredible portfolio featuring different styles with one thing in common, they are all top-notch in terms of quality.
