An avid fisherman, his gallery work focuses on the animals he encounters along the creeks and rivers he frequents. This dude who used to write,” Broth says of El Kamino, “he’s the only person who I’ve ever seen use spray paint and paint like a painter does, like lay down layers and build stuff up. An incredibly talented person in general.”(styleweekly.com)

Matt Furie and Future Colors of America is made up of “artists Albert Reyes, Matt
Furie, and Aiyana Udesen. Albert Reyes is a Los Angeles-based San Francisco Art Institute graduate who has developed a style equally influenced by graffiti, comics, and fine art. Among other media, he draws and prints on the inside covers of old books and mixes
traditional Mexican imagery, popular culture icons, and political suggestion.
Aiyana Udesen went to school at the San Francisco Art Institute with Reyes, and lives in San Francisco, where she gained attention for her “how-to-draw” series of zines, many of which have married her interests in celebrities, animals, and realistic-yet-stylish illustration.
Matt Furie, a San Francisco-based artist whose richly detailed, hyper colored illustrations and paintings reflect the creative cross breeding of The Neverending Story, unrestrained imagination of The Muppet Show, and humor of ALF. His corruption by popular culture is further complicated, or perhaps enriched by the energy of BMX culture and anarchy of street art.” (Juxtapoz.com)

Chip7 Chip assisted Dalek and painted some of his work.”He culls his ideas from the rawest place where the purest inspiration comes from; the internal core located at the center of us all. In the macrocosmin/macrocosmic interchange, many would know this to be the Center of the Universe.”

“The unique, writhing, organic configurations of Chip’s work are best left to the dissection and discussions of the viewer. “
