A major name in the Bay Area graffiti scene, Neonski became a member of the legendary BA (Burning America) Crew in the early 90s and in 1994, became the North American distributor of Barcelona-based Montana (MTN) Colors, a graffiti-writer owned, private company, and the first spray paint brand made by-and-for writers. MTN Colors has become a staple for artists of all types involved in graffiti. Now C.E.O/President, Neonski’s painting takes a backseat to the business, but whenever the opportunity arises, the artist enjoys going back to his roots. Cultural symbols of his rich Armenian heritage can be seen in some of his pieces.
APEX (b. 1978, San Francisco, CA), also known as Ricardo Richey, is a street artist who creates colorful abstract patterns through the use of spray paint. Part of the Gestalt Collective that engages in collaborative murals in San Francisco, Apex curated mural projects on Bluxome Alley, other districts of San Francisco, and the SFMOMA display windows in association with St. Johns Community Center (San Francisco, 2002). His work has been shown extensively both in the Bay Area and abroad.
Chez is a member of the Fresh Paint crew, producing high quality images in various mediums and surfaces. His portfolio of work includes all aspects of aerosol lettering, tattoo art, airbrushing and photorealistic paintings in oils, acrylics and spray paint.
