American artist UFO907 found himself attracted to the subcultural world of graffiti and vandalism after leaving art shool disillusioned. He traded paint brushes for spray cans and viewed the back lots and streets of New York City as his studio and gallery. UFO907’s street work assisted in honing his style and artistic development. His work stems from a fine art background utilizing unconventional painting techniques and highly expressive line work. UFO907’s character-based graffiti and playful imagery has helped to propel his work from the streets to the mainstream gallery world. His transition to studio work still boasts a connection to his graffiti roots encompassing the use of spray paint and markers through his UFO iconography. UFO907’s work exhibits a passion and deep understanding of artistic materials and limitless methods of application.
