Characters in graffiti are where its at! They add that lil extra something to a piece and can really bring together a production. We hit up some mad dope character writers and they gave us the low down on their work

I like to paint strange abstract characters that make people feel uncomfortable when they look at them. Things that make people stop and ask themselves “What the F&%K am I looking at?” Art should create a reaction. Whether it speaks to you, makes a political statement or when it comes to my work…just makes you feel weird. The monkey is my staple. He’s been around since the beginning.

Hey whats up. i’m RIED from Indonesia. I like to draw things like character, graffiti, ect. I always makes a different character with the same style. I want everyone know about my creation from my own style not from my name.

I have a compelling interest in urban art that has ultimately brought me back to the cartoon world I grew up admiring. I create my own idiom within a childlike iconography, giving it a more adult twist. My creations appear to be for children, but in fact address adult subject matters.

I used to do a lot of letters so when I switch to doing characters I shared them to have the same color intensity and improvisation as letters. I like to paint people who represent a subset in society but in extra-ordinary form. I’m looking forward to get more deeper with colors in the future.
