ANTIQUE ARCHAEOLOGY – THE WILD RIDE

ANTIQUE ARCHAEOLOGY is a bold and energetic illustration inspired by the vintage cartoon style of Tex Avery. It features a bearded wolf with a wild look, mouth wide open, tongue hanging out, and sharp, jagged teeth forming a mischievous grin. His biker persona is emphasized by a motorcycle helmet adorned with stickers paying tribute to the legendary Indian Motorcycles, with a pair of goggles securely fastened on top.

In a dynamic stance, he grips a handlebar tightly, symbolizing the adrenaline and freedom of motorcycle racing. The entire composition is framed by two stylized banners: "ANTIQUE" at the top and "ARCHAEOLOGY" at the bottom, both pierced by an arrow an extra nod to the Native American heritage of the iconic Indian brand.

With its vibrant color palette and expressive linework, this design bursts with raw energy and vintage cartoon dynamism, paying homage to the icons of motorcycling and the timeless aesthetic of classic animation.
