One of the most prolific artists painting today, Greg 'Craola' Simkins' diverse body of work is as likely to be found in a gallery as on the streets. Bridging pop surrealism and graffiti art with the skill of a fine art painter, his art is unique and recognisable, blending a wealth of early influences with contemporary pop culture references. This new monograph traces the development of the artist, from a kid playing with crayons to the present day. In some cases, preliminary sketches can be found alongside finished works providing a glimpse into the artistic process and evolution of a piece. Other creations stand alone, masterpieces of artwork as narrative.
