About the Artist
LUKE FELDMAN aka SKAFFS
Luke Feldman, the creator of SKAFFS, is an Australian artist who creates for a multitude of platforms. His illustrations and animations are distinctive with defined lines, elaborate detail, and intensely vibrant colours. SKAFFS is a collection of work made up of art, animation, giant wall adhesives, games, books, skatedecks and collector toys. While the scope of his work is extensive, it is bound together through his unique and dynamic style; a style that has led to worldwide exhibitions, a number of awards, and exhibitions with high profile artists including Theodore Geisel and Maurice Sendak and collaborations with companies such as Disney, Coca-Cola and Cartoon Network.
In 2009, Luke launched his latest project, a limited edition art book “Chaff n Skaffs: Mai and the Lost Moskivvy”. Desktop Magazine describe the book as “the perfect conduit for Feldman’s imagination combining his waif like lasses and charming characters with the beautiful, yet unpredictable realm that is the unique Australian environment.” Discover a new kind of heroine and a world of visual delight that Flavorpill described as a “childlike wonder and crisp exaggerated colors.”
More recently, Luke joined up with Start Mobile to expand his portfolio to an iPhone art gallery and affordable giant wall adhesives.
Further details with regard to his work and upcoming exhibitions can be found at www.skaffs.com.
“Luke Feldman's artwork blends the classic stylings of 1950s Disney with a modern design sensibility to create something both cutting edge and timeless.”
– Andrew Farago, Manager & curator, San Francisco Cartoon Art Museum Gallery
“Indeed, one might contend that Feldman is to digital art what Tim Burton is to cinema, or Dr. Seuss is to children's books, as each artist has a distinctive, unmistakable style.”
– Hans Fink, Los Angeles’ Skinnie Magazine
“...display beauty, humanity, sexuality encapsulated by mystery and darkness”
- San Francisco Art Magazine
“Luke Feldman’s instantly recognizable ‘Skaffs’ creations comprise a heady mix of bright colors and razor sharp style mixed with an underlying, almost tangible naivety that make his illustrations easily identifiable in a world where originality is not as easy to find as you might think.”
- Jo Spurling, author and editor of Desktop magazine
