KID ACNE'S SHEFFIELD

Artist, illustrator, print-maker and MC – Kid Acne is a modern day renaissance man and elder statesman of the international Street Art scene. Having first picked up a spray can at the age of twelve, his formative years were spent painting graffiti, making fanzines, screen-printing and producing DIY punk/ hip-hop records. The combination of these interests informed a more illustrative approach to graffiti, incorporating influences from skateboard graphics and underground comics.  Based in Sheffield, Kid Acne has left his mark on the city with representations of female warriors and his trademark slogans incorporating a South Yorkshire angle to social commentary.

We've compiled a gallery of Kid Acne's work as taken by the outstanding House Of Rock on Flickr.
