In 2002, Jeff Soto graduated with Distinction from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California.
There is a strong environmental message in his illustrations. An abstract fusion and representation of the natural and mechanical which may more broadly symbolize human influence on nature. They seem to illustrate that the machines have come from the natural and are in turn influencing the environment. But then often poets are surprised at what people see in their work – perhaps the subconscious coming out or a bit of luck – Which ever way Great Style Great Message.

DALEK (aka James Marshall) is a Brooklyn-based illustrator . His Space Monkey character was born out of graffiti. A self-taught painter, DALEK discovered graffiti in 1994 in the rail yards of California and later Chicago.

What is DALEK?
A Dalek is a member of a fictional extraterrestrial race of mutants from the science fiction television series Doctor Who. Daleks are grotesque mutated organisms from the planet Skaro, integrated within a tank-like mechanical casing. The resulting creatures are a powerful bent on universal conquest and domination, utterly without pity, compassion or remorse (as all of their emotions were removed except hate).
Do you think James Marshall had this in mind for his nik or just chance?

Based in San Francisco Sam Flores creates characters which are hero like. His signatures are that these characters have mostly closed eyes and large hands. The end results is the feeling that these characters are expressing a particular dichotomy in life – simultaneously experiencing ugliness and beauty. “how can the world be so horrible and yet so beautiful at the same time.”
