Mr Gauky
They influence my practice by their often twisted imagery smoothed over by a well presented illustration, that has potential to sell for fine art prices as their individual practices have moved on, especially in Jeremy Fish's case. Gauky has an aesthetic I would love to match but that would take much time on my own part, but Sieben is my main man so to speak. His work and style is distinct enough to have an application across magazine/editorial with the ability to transfer to merchandise. The reason why I chose the skateboards and merch in his work is because I will be pursuing a brief after the course which involves a local skate park, their branding and merchandise/painting opportunities. This will be better explained in my DC presentation.
