I began by practising Euro style letters. Through influence I stumbled on ‘Sydney style’ (letters influenced by the birth of New York subway graffiti), and began to evolve what was coming out of my images and the cans. Keeping this in mind I aim to produce some letters of originality!

Drapl is a Brisbane based artist who has been spray painting for around 18 years. Since he picked up the cans, his obsession with the art form has led him to paint full-time and run a successful mural business providing him with a lot of experience painting in different styles. Drapl loves to push his style in different ways, now focusing a lot on portraits, both abstract and realist often blending the two genres. Drapl and Treasy often collaborate, mixing spiritual fantasy art with themes that may make one think twice about their existence on this earth. They can’t wait to flex their skills on this awesome old skate arena which brings back a lot of childhood memories!!
Like all trees, Treazy’s roots are planted strong in the underground. As the seasons change it’s time for growth, time to break through the surface of anonymity and transition into the full being of his creative potential. With more than 20 years in the game he still only considers himself at the beginning of where this artistic journey will take him. Graffiti has played a pinnacle role in his life, teaching him priceless gems about the values of freedom and friendships, the evils of the system and how to navigate around it. This outside-of-the-box perspective has allowed him to travel the world extensively, leaving a colorful legacy from the deep catacombs of the Paris subway to the dense bio- diversity of the Amazon Jungle. With the generous loving support from Ironlak and his crew at his back the possibilities are limitless and the time is now.
