The Desktop Wallpaper Project featuring Ward Jenkins
Posted by Bobby Solomon • March 11, 2010 • The Desktop Wallpaper Project

I’m totally sorry that I didn’t post this wallpaper yesterday, my days have been super busy, which I’ll be speaking about on Monday. Until then, sorry about the delay. This week’s desktop comes from one of the nicest and most talented illustrators out there, Mr. Ward Jenkins. He’s a fantastic artist with that kind of retro vintage style but with a contemporary spin that makes his work feel fresh and vibrant. Plus he uses the best colors, the man is a genius in that department. He also has an epic beard which I believe stores his talent.

I asked Ward to create a bike related wallpaper so he came up with the totally fun image you see above. It’s all about the color palette on this one, plus those arrows which totally spice it up. It’s such a fun image and makes me wish I was riding my bike right now. Thanks Ward!
