Hebru Brantley is a Chicago based artist most famously known for his work with his style which derives from graffiti-worn buildings and sneaker-hung telephone poles honoring memories of local legends. Brushes and aerosol cans are his main media that he works in. He made his debut back in December, when rap superstar Jay Z spent $20,000 on one of his pieces at Art Basel. His paintings depict emotional images from youthful expression and he likes to combine styles of mythological comic heroes and Japanese anime, mixed with his own graffiti based past work. He works in many types of different media from paintings to sculpture.
