Inkie

Inkie began working as part of Crime Incorporated Crew, also known as the “CIC” in 1983, along with Felix and Joe Braun. He was arrested in 1989 during “Operation Anderson”, the UK's largest ever graffiti bust. He arranged the 1998's Walls on Fire event with Banksy, on the site of the future At-Bristol centre. He has subsequently worked in the video game industry, including as head of creative design at Sega, where his work featured in Jet Set Radio. Inkie was commissioned to do live painting at the launch of Banksy's book Bristol "Home Sweet Home". Having chosen to only outsource his work via established members of the Fine Art Guild (Established 1847), the restricted work have seen demand increase in some cases by 10 times in value as his art demand has spread across all shores including Japan, China, America to name a few. Inkie is now a brand, a name, an artist and a phenomenon with auctions sales set to break records in 2013.
