HIT THE NORTH ARTISTS 2023
Pens
Pens is a Dublin based artist with a background in graffiti and illustration. He grew up painting letters but developed a passion for character work. He likes to combine techniques learnt from graffiti and illustration to make his creations.
His aim is to give a mischievous nature to the animals he sees in the city. He enjoys finding abandoned places and random quirky spots to paint his characters, as if they are hidden in and around the city just as these animals would do themselves in an urban environment.
