The very latest series of work that he has been putting his time and effort into is titled the “Construction Series” which stems from the craftsmanship being implemented.

The Dotmaster - Leon Seesix (UK)

Submitted by russell on

The Dotmaster, a UK artist, started painting on the streets of Brighton in the early ’90s. He takes a sideways look at a populist media with a typically English sense of humour. His work is impeccably detailed – his half-tone work, stark black and white street pieces and unique, photo-real colour stencils all create street-based illusions that fool the eye.

Mig Kokinda (Austin, TX)

Submitted by russell on

Experimentation using stencils and spray paint started around 1992 or 1993; today, almost all of my posters use this medium. The drawbacks to this are limited runs (above 40 prints and the stencils need recutting), a time consuming process( hampered by moist or cold weather), and a destruction of brain cells (hopefully slowed by a mask). Everything is done by hand, from designing and drawing it to cutting it out (I am lost on a computer) – making it a lengthy labor.
