Illustration has been my primary creative interest since early 2006 - up until then I was more focused on film and animation. Most of the work that I have done over the last year or so has revolved around the music scene, be it artwork for bands, or the split exhibition I did at Keith & Lottie last year - which was all about the relationship between songs and pictures. At the moment I am trying to shift more into editorial/advertising illustration, and am planning some small animation projects. I am also looking at doing a solo show later this year.

There isn’t anything that outrageous about my style, really - I draw mostly people and animals, with simple linework and a limited colour palette. But I never start a drawing unless there is a good idea behind it, and I prefer subjects that’ll get some sort of reaction out of people - I don’t mind if that reaction is ‘vaguely amused’ or ’slightly disturbed’, as long as the image makes you feel something, and can hold your attention for more than 2 seconds.

This year I have had work published in the Semi-Permanent book and on the cover of Queensland’s Flying Arts Annual, and will have an illustration featured in the next issue of Frankie magazine.

Pierre is a Perth based graphic designer and illustrator with a varied design career. Originally studying and working in web design, he moved into the print industry which allowed his interest in art and technology to combine more fruitfully. He has since shifted into the area of digital graphics and illustration in a more professional context, working at a startup advertising and design studio. Having recently completed his studies he intends to pursue these areas with gusto.

Pierre grew up admiring many comic books and cartoons, particularly Tintin - loving the clean outlines and detailed scenes of Herge’s creation. He often incorporates these influences into much of his illustration work.

Pierre draws particular inspiration from pre production artwork and concepts found in the video game and motion picture industries, and the huge range of techniques employed in visualizing these creations through to completion. It is one area where he would love to work in one day….

Yolanda Stapleton originally studied advertising before moving into graphics after graduating. Since then she has produced works in product, photography, fashion and illustration, although graphics remains her primary area of interest. Working on setting up her label ‘Onetrickpony’ Yolanda has also been exhibiting quite extensively with work shown recently in Perth, Melbourne and Tokyo. Her first solo show is set for July and will be an exhibition of the ‘tiny people with rage’ series.

Yolanda was recently involved in the ‘Reunion’ show at Breadbox Gallery.
“I produced a set for the exhibition titled ‘Fire!’ it’s based in graphics but I wanted to move away from computer-generated work, which lead to this outcome. The use of non traditional media was great in terms of visual impact but also in terms of unpredictability, I had an idea of what I wanted as the end result but working with fire meant that the final outcome was never certain.”

Drassman emerged onto the local club scene with his immediately recognisable illustrations and event posters.

Proficient with most media, his early beginnings with watercolour and ink eventually graduated to digital art. His style remains flexible, ranging from comic book graphics to photorealism.

Best recognised for the art for the Perth Destination? gigs and the Cottesloe Beach Hotel, his work can also been seen in Sydney, Melbourne and overseas.

His art remains fun, occasionally tongue-in-cheek and ever evolving.

When not scouring the social scene for his next muse, he can be found either sipping lychee martinis or saving the world.

Since launching his career as an proscribed visual artist in 1984, Mills has carved a distinctive niche for his work that has seen him showcased internationally to critical acclaim. His work has crossed many boundaries with representation in exhibitions in London, Birmingham , Berlin, Los Angeles, Melbourne and Perth.

His solo exhibitions held in Perth in 1999 and 2003 were hugely successful with both shows selling out on opening night and resulting in numerous private commissions. In 2002 he achieved a Commendation Award in the highly competitive “City of Perth Invitational Art Award” and in May 2005 was invited to London as a guest speak at the London Institute of Contemporary Arts to launch the Thames & Hudson publication “Graffiti World”. Late in 2006 he will present works in Tokyo and Taipei before returning to his third solo show in Perth in May 2007 followed by another in Melbourne in July of the same year.

He has been commissioned to create works in both Los Angles and London and in 2002 was invited to create large scale murals across Greece in preparation for the Olympics.

Mills’ work is a deeply personal narrative about emotions captured in the layers of his works, depictions from intense observations of the texture of life to engage and challenge the viewer to explore beyond the surface to find real beauty amidst the decay.

Justin Randall spends his days at Curtin University lecturing about Digital Illustration and his nights in a studio actually doing it. You can find his work in the odd magazine and the occasional comic book. Currently he is working on a few graphic novels for offshore publishers and will soon release his own project titled ‘Changing Ways’.

He doesn’t sleep much, prefers listening to movies rather than music and can be a right bastard when he has a looming deadline.

18 year old Brendan favours drawing cartoon characters and random creatures over anything else, also starting to dabble in graffiti art.

“I’d always had an interest in art, even as a kid. But I only really took an interest in it about 4 years ago when I actually started animating and drawing pieces for critique. After I landed a job a ‘company blank’ I spent about a year and a half doing design work with Photoshop, Flash, Illustrator, Dreamweaver and a mess of other programs” says Brendan.

Brendan draws inspiration from artists and animators like Dan Paladin, Adam Phillips, Andre Nguyen, Tom Fulp, Shawn Hollern. Brendan has stepped away from animation for now and has been concentrating on game design and programming projects.

“Robots are super cool.”, says Deathbot when asked why that’s about the only thing ever drawn by this middle aged Perth artist. “so’s booze”, he adds, explaining why when you check out any Deathbot shit, said robots are, were or about to be drunk.
“what else are they gonna do? It’s only gonna take ‘em about an hour a day to get all their work done. Then what? The obviously don’t want to hang around with jerk humans, so they’ll just get pissed.”
“What the hell are you talking about?” I demand.
“the future, that’s what.” The future indeed.

Anyway, the pictures are real nice. If idiot industrial designers don’t rip Deathbot off when designing the first wave of mechanical men, then God help us all. We’ll probably end up with some stupid mannequin looking monstrosity. Or worse. Obviously I’m influenced by Deathbot’s pictures, and thus can’t really picture what else robot’s could look like.

Facter became interested in art whilst bombing with various graff crews in Perth during the early 90’s, but moved away from graffiti into the design realm several years later. It is from that early love of graffiti that his passion for art first sprang. After studying art in Queensland he became interested in curating exhibitions and presenting group works, and after several years doing so he finally returned to Western Australia and continued to work in almost complete seclusion, only having begun to show and present his artwork to the outside world in the past two years.

Facters work has evolved over the past fifteen years to a distinctive tech-natural style. Meshing his early graffiti influences with his life-long addiction to science fiction and his passion for traditional Aztec and Maori design has enabled Facter to create a unique personal style which is almost instantly recognisable. With his respect of the natural world, which was instilled in him whilst living in the rainforests of Far North Queensland, Facters works hope to present a harmonious interpolation between visions of the future and the organic world - without the at times too harsh a nature that “bio-mechanical” forms of art usually take. Almost all of his work is drawn in charcoal pencil or artline 0.4/0.8, with as minimal utilisation of photoshop as is possible.

Kyle lives in Perth, Western Australia although he grew up sharing his time between the Solomon islands, Perth, Melbourne and Holland.

Being an early comic book fan influenced kyle’s painting and illustration style quite obviously and helped shape his unique style today. Kyle’s work is inspired by the bizarre people he sees on the streets, humorous observations of life and what it means to exist.

Matt (who just turned 30) is fairly new to the computer game, most of Matt’s art starts off with a pen or pencil, currently he’s using all types of mediums including oils, inks, water colours and photo montage. Most of Matt’s art ends up in Photoshop to some extent. Matt is looking to get into more of the illustration side but loves large messy stuff.
