About this Artist
I entered the design business quite late when I was 24 years old. After my diploma in marketing & sales at a viennese university, I figured out, that my former dreamjob - working at an advertising agency as a client service member - has not much to do with being creative, in the sense of how I interpret it. As I still couldn´t believe that marketing didn´t give me the space for my creativity I did a few other jobs related to my study, hoping to find my passion. Afterall I decided to take my hobby (playing arround with photoshop and illustrator) more serious and started to design my first websites. After several numbers of layouts I got more into illustration and into print projects. Business is hard, especially for a selfmade graphic designer, but together with friends working in a familiar business we founded a pool where we tried to support eachother and to set up projects together. Beside that, i found companies to work with as a freelancer on a regular basis, in the field of trendsports and lifestyle projects. .... so much for the past More than 60 artists contributed to the All City Style Germany Tour, from well known graffiti writers to illustrators and fine artists. Tour stops inlcuded Frankfurt, Köln, Dortmund, Heidelberg, Hamburg, Vienna and Munich! Created, sculpted, and produced by Bigshot Toyworks, the All-City Style Train was tremendously popular when we first introduced it in 2005. Supported by multiple custom shows in New York, San Francisco, London, Paris, Moscow, and Melbourne, the All-City Style Trains were embraced by both the graff community and the designer toy community as an excellent platform figure for artists of all styles. At 20" long, it's a large canvas...and with connector pieces included to join two trains together, it provides the artist with a lot more room to work than the average platform toy.
