About Slaine

Slaine grew up drawing in South Africa and moved to San Diego for an apprenticeship, the ocean and a skateboard. He works bold: color traditional and neo-traditional, illustrative pieces and black and grey, with clean lines that carry saturated color.

He lights up for dark characters, creatures and strange concepts out of comics, science fiction and horror, and he is open to any idea at any size. He takes walk-ins when his chair is free.
