About the author....
Hi, my name is Stuart Kolakovic and I just about manage to draw pictures for a living here in the U.K. I graduated from Kingston University with a First Class honors in Illustration (2007), where I won a D&AD New Blood award for "Milorad", an 80 page comic book about my Serbian Grandad, and recently came runner up in The Observer Graphic short Story competition. So far my clients have included Reaktion publishing, KU Press, The Natural History Museum, Caughtinthecrossfire, NYU Physician Magazine and Plan B magazine. I'm currently working towards my first solo show in Manchester, entitled "Never Been", and a new book and look forward to sleeping sometime in the future.
Ok- I’ve been out the invisibleman loop for a wee bit too long, so I’m gonna post a bunch of recent stuff that I’ve been up to. First up, Get a hold of one of these limited edition (only 19 printed), hand shaped, five colour Old school Slalom skateboards! Each one is printed on top quality 11 Ply Canadian Birchwood, and the top graphic is surrounded by a handcut vintage style grip job. They’re available to buy without tucks or wheels from my etsy shop for only $75.
Let her rip. Hang ten.
