Step into Tim Van den Broeck “world and encounter flowing forms and snaky shapes, swirling through sleek compositions past erupting mountains of colour. Inconspicuous characters will be crossing your path, trying to sell you sheer imagination with their slick expressions or silly gestures.”

Above is perhaps best known for his trademark graffiti style arrows that have cropped up around the globe. Placed inconspicuously “above” crowded streets, these pointed designators generally feature a single, emotionally charged or ultra simplistic, yet thought provoking descriptor.
This talented urban artist also creates gorgeous large scale type forms. His typographic murals are awe inspiring and larger than life. He makes the process of typography look like child’s play as he deftly wields his spray paint can to create public works of inspiration.
“My illustrations are heavily pen and ink based, whilst incorporating photography and screen-printing throughout much of my work. By exploring the initially ordinary, I find inspiration in “everyday” architecture, objects, packaging, possessions and pop culture.”
Zoe More O’Ferrall a lovely new talent!
Chow Martin is.. Heist! Meaning the pseudonym is the combine efforts of twin brothers showing the illustration side of their work, while running a design studio for commercial assignments! Ingenious strategy!
Was just about ready to present this ‘new’ illustrator to the world — and caught up with the the facetious supercherie — while looking for a bio. Tada! Unmasked and now we get 2 for 1.
_______
