The B.O.T.Y. China soundtrack team is very lucky to have Dep providing all the design work for the soundtrack CD.

Biography

Dep first developed a love for letter forms and illustration through graffiti art in the mid-eighties. This passion continued to grow taking him along a natural path into graphic design in which he spent over 10 years working on a wide range of projects for leading brands such as Nike, Adidas, MTV, Jaguar, PlayStation and Virgin Media.

In 2007 Dep set up Paintshop Studio, a London based creative agency, bringing together graphic design and his graffiti/street influences to create exciting design for branding, print, web, advertising, events, film and illustration.

Dep is still heavily involved in the UK graffiti scene, painting with Turnin’ Tricks crew and taking part in many of the UKs main events such as Meeting of Styles, Write 4 Gold, Sleeping Giants as well as touring China with the French ‘Eating Frogs Tour ‘07’. His work has been featured in some ground breaking exhibitions and can be seen regularly in many Graffiti art publications including Graphotism where he also contributes as a writer.

You can view his work and check out what he's up to on his website www.paintshopstudio.com and keep your eyes peeled for Shrunken Headz a new Graf culture magazine coming out very soon.
