Nonsensical Summer Illustrations

The High Summer Collection by Caio Lekecinskas is Whimsical

— March 29, 2013 — Art & Design
This collection of images from illustrator Caio Lekecinskas, entitled 'High Summer Collection' is based around the theme of summer, albeit in highly surreal fashion. The images feature a pair of red rimmed glasses with ice cream cones poking out through the lenses, a Martini balloon and a baseball helmet that has been turned into a coconut shell cocktail drink.

The bright, bold contrasting colors and the artists wry sense of offbeat humor combine to charm the viewer. The artist says: "The idea of High Summer Collection was to create objects and trends that will freshen the summer of 2020, when the ceiling fan did not tolerate the global warming anymore." I'm not quite sure what that means, but it doesn't stop the 'High Summer Collection' being a delight.
