ART: Craig Drake - Asian Influences

Craig Drake: Asian Influences
Web | Facebook | HeroComplexGallery
curated by YellowMenace (20 images)
*UPDATED: Nov 2017

   With minimal as the mantra of the 2010s, Craig Drake's art has come along at just the right moment. He balances simplicity with enough well placed detail & beloved pop subject matter to make his work irresistible.

   This post focuses on Asian movie, anime & comic pop icons. This isn't the first time I've featured Craig's art & I can guarantee you it won't be the last.

   Craig recently had his second solo show at Hero Complex Gallery. The links to purchase prints below all lead to the Hero Complex Store. (Art without links has already sold out)
