Kid Crayon

Overview

KID CRAYON 

 

Hi, My Name is Kid Crayon and I am visual artist/ Illustrator based in Bristol. I am passionate about character design and work in an art style that is deeply rooted in Hip Hop, skateboard and Graffiti culture. My biggest influences come from the 90s; the cartoons and video games I was engrossed in during my childhood, pretty much informed my whole aesthetic and the kind of art I make today……The name Kid Crayon was formed from this ideology, along with my love of all things western…….Crayon the Kidd just didn’t have the same ring to it!

The past few years I’ve been spending most of my time working on murals and spray-paint based projects, but my weapons of choice also include Alcohol markers , Digital Art and Acrylic painting . I also love making my own art toys and working on Blank Vinyls…….but its always tough finding time between commercial work . As a freelancer, I am always jumping between projects and have worked with some amazing clients over the years. My clients include Adidas , Deliveroo, Roxy , Bristol University and O2 Academy .

My main crew is an art duo called Eat Crew, which was formed with fellow artist SP Zero . We formed the duo back in 2016 and have been colaborating on walls ever since . Recently I formed a second Duo with illustrator Ian Moore, where we paint under the name Cloth Mother. Watch this space!

My mission is to continue pushing my creative practice and use my artwork to positively enhance public spaces.

My calendar is quite booked out throughout 2023 . However, If you have a project you would like to discuss, please get in contact via Kidcrayon1@gmail.com and I will get back to you ASAP….. If you eve have any festival invites I will be there at the drop of hat!
