El Rey
El Rey is an American man whose true history resides in a stack
of sealed legal documents. His studio is in a secret location somewhere deep
in the bowels of San Francisco's colorful Mission District, home of the
head-sized burrito and the 99c discount store. He began painting while in
exile from his homeland of New York City and has participated in several
exhibitions in San Francisco, usually involving low ceilings, shady patrons,
and an almost subliminal, but palpable, sense of danger.
Most of his works are ferverently executed in acrylic and ink on plywood,
though he's recently begun a series of ink-and-watercolor studies of species
unknown to man. He does commissions and custom art for any and all takers.
His love for coffee, like the contents of his favorite mug, runs strong and
deep.
El Rey HQ is at www.elreydelart.com, and he is constantly online,
thanks to a government-issue satellite uplink chip located in his forebrain.
