K74 - G-D Loves Monkeys
Respect to Mr K74 for making the trip to Upfest for the third year in a row! And there's a rumour he'll be colaberating with some wicked artists ;-)
K74 is one of the best known street artist and stencil cutter coming out of Los Angeles. K74 is a self-taught artist whose work is sometimes political, sometimes funny but always witty. K74 sees himself as a realist and gets his inspiration from the ever-changing canvas that is Los Angeles.
In the past few years K74 has exploded into the urban art scene and is exhibiting his works in several shows and galleries across the globe. With his work now owned by music artists such as Snoop Dogg he’s one crazy artist breaking out of America and painting the streets of our cities.

This weeks canvas from Rocket01
[IMG]http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm229/Logical1_photos/Rocket01.jpg[/IMG]
My name is Rocket01 and i am an artist from Sheffield. I have been painting graffiti now for 16 years with no breaks or holidays. I have painted my work in many countries all over the world and i just cant get enough of painting. I enjoy working on large walls and collaborating with other artists to produce murals of different styles! I am interested in pushing the spray can to its limits and i have have an obsession with painting light.
Most of my work is painted in places of decay and neglect and out of sight from the public, I enjoy painting old buildings and abandoned factories as they leave behind great surfaces on which to work. More recently my work has been focused on organic styles in particular plants and animals. More images and further profile on Rocket01 can be found at www.rocket01.com .
