about the artists -

Matzu-MTP - An internationally known artist whose work has shown all over
the world. Using mostly acrylics, inks and house paint Matzu-MTP creates
work influenced by the street and skate culture as that was the environment
he was raised in.
Ogi - Born and raised in Tokyo, Japan, Ogi moved to Denver, Colorado after
his high school graduation to snowboard and study English. After moving to
Oakland, California, Ogi attended the California College of the Arts and Crafts
where he graduated in 2004. Since then, Ogi has exhibited in events and
galleries worldwide.
Deth P Sun - A graduate of the California Collage of Arts and Crafts, Sun's
artwork has been seen on t-shirts, cd covers and more. It's Sun's unique
and interesting depictions of life at its most honest core that keep fans
coming back for more.
Luke Chueh - Establishing himself as an artist not to be ignored, Chueh
worked his way up the ranks of the LA art scene into becoming one of
today's hottest artists nationwide. Employing minimal color schemes, simple
animal characters, and a seemingly endless list of ill-fated situations, Chueh
stylistically balances cute with brute, walking the fine line between comedy
and tragedy.
Thomas Han - Known for his off the wall character driven, acrylic/silk screen
paintings, Han wraps the message of want, desire, and addiction together
and into colorful candy-coated pieces.
Stella Im Hultberg - New York based artist Stella Im Hultberg is a freelance
toy designer, illustrator and artist. She creates lovely, touching scenes with
intricately drawn details, and a special kindness and love towards animals.
Yoskay Yamamoto - Born in the Land of the Rising Sun, Yamamoto spent
his youth idolizing Japanese graphic novels and playing endless hours of
Lego Blocks. In 1997 he moved to Santa Barbara to experience Western
Culture. Currently living in San Francisco, he paints and lives the life of a
starving student artist.
Sylvia Ji - Born to artistic parents, Ji's interest in art was implanted at a very
young age. In her art, she explores themes of beauty, sexual provocation,
and social notions of femininity juxtaposed against the dystopian reality of
modern cities to create highly charged paintings of women. Recently, she
graduated with distinction in 2005 from the Academy of Art University of San
Francisco and has been in demand since.
Wil Lin - Wil Lin has been a fixture in the Anime art scene in Los Angeles for
almost a decade now. Once you catch a glimpse of Lin's large-scale anime
portraits, you'll start seeing them everywhere.
Wanda Chan - Set Designer and Prop extraordinaire, Wanda Chan's work
has been seen in countless movies and music videos. An avid artist as well,
Chan exhibits her work thru various forms of media, always designed to
enchant the eye while subconsciously delivering a message
