ARTISTS featured Galleries

Playoutyork

Artist born in Brindisi in southern Italy in 1987, he moved from house to house until he reached the age of 11 in Liguria, La Spezia. He began experimenting with letters combined with faces in 2000, schools weren’t his thing and he often ran away to paint in the street.

Works on: cartoons / characters / children / graffiti / humour / illustrations / portraits / walls /

Jennifer Erny

I sign my work j3rny, playing with the phonetic coincidence of the word “journey” with the initial letter of my first name along with my last. It is fitting as in my work I capture moments of spiritual encounters or journeys. For me the most direct path to a spiritual encounter is through nature. So I depict portraits of the human figure interacting with the natural world, with plants, insects and animals. In recognizing the present moment and breathing in the magnitude and marvel of the simple elements of one’s everyday environment, we encounter ourselves and therefore the pulsating essence that inhabits and connects us.

Works on: animals / colours / commisioned / female artist / girl power / illustrations / nature / walls /

James Jetlag

JETLAG has started painting graffiti in late 1989 as a youngster, later evolving into a Street Art muralist; being a professional artist since 2008. Coming from the south region of the Netherlands, he grew up amongst the 1st generation of graffiti mates in a poor, former industrial region that brought forward quite a lot of today’s well known graffiti and mural artists, like: DOES, NASH, CHAS and GOMAD, still being his today’s friends and well respected colleagues.

Works on: 3D / abstract / animals / big walls / cartoons / characters / children / colours / contemporary / graffiti / pop art / portraits / unconventional / walls /

“Re1st”

I am “Re1st”, 35 year old Israeli artist of Armenian descent. I discovered graffiti for the first time at the age of 15, in 2002 and until 2006 I painted on the streets of my native city, mostly writing the names of my favorite rock bands. In 2006 called up to serve in the army.

Works on: abstract / characters / graffiti / pop art / sexy / trash art / virtual / walls /
