About this Artist
I'm an artist that likes to draw messed up junk, heavily influenced by Japanese monster toys, Ed "Big Daddy" Roth, pop art, and vintage manga. I usually work with markers and ink but also enjoy painting with acrylics and spray paint. I attended the Art Institute of Pittsburgh but left to spend more time with my hardcore punk band. A few years ago I started doing gig posters, t-shirts and album covers for bands. Lately I have been releasing limited edition serigraphs, multi-media prints on canvas, and t-shirt designs. I hope you enjoy my art.During the mid-eighties neo-rockabilly craze lots of young men were putting pomade in their hair and getting fresh tattoos. All this petroleum waste from hair pomade, mixed with peeling skin from tattoos, combined to line sewer pipes deep under the streets. A jolt of radiation from a black market Russian nuclear device in 1995 gave life to a bubbling mass of hair, pomade and skin cells. The result, born in 2005...Greasebat. It is unknown if Greasebat is good or evil, he seems to be attracted to industrial areas, usually chemical plants. He clumsily destroys everything with his short legs and poor vision from separately rotating eyes. He has been observed eating barrels of heavyweight motor oil and old stock vinyl for pressing records. He can fly short distances and is a ferocious fighter who will use anything within reach to defeat his opponent. His oddly shaped body is covered in thick armored scales, and his head with bulbous jelly like pustules.
