Once a mild-mannered, casual artist content with doing portraits of his friends' table-top RPG characters; Brad Rigney soon descended into an endless, maddening obsession to be the best digital illustrator he could become after being exposed to the cosmic, mind bending talents that lay within the Conceptart.Org forums 8 years ago. Now known only as "The Cryptcrawler" the once reasonable and tempered artist has been transformed into a sinister, shambling, art-obsessed creature of the night bent on dedicating every breathing moment to digital illustration, unleashing his freelance, artistic focus upon such hapless companies as Bungie, Wizards of the Coast and now for the diabolical entity known as Massive Black Inc.

Brad also happily dwells in southern Mississippi with his wife Katherine and daughter Ginger.

Influenced by Sargent and Whistler, Francis Livingston painted primarily in a monochromatic style until he began to study the work of the Bay Area Figurative Movement, including Richard Diebenkorn, Wayne Thiebaud and others. That led to experiments with color and a fondness for the California and French Impressionists.

He has now become one of the West's premier living painters.

His work soon earned him a place in Walt Reed's book, 200 Years of American Illustrators. He has executed approximately a dozen covers for Time magazine. This and other broad exposure, along with significant attention from the Society of Illustrators, solidified Storey's ascension into the most elite group of American illustrators. The late 80's and early 90's found many of Storey's students, such as Kent Williams, George Pratt and John Van Fleet making big names for themselves in the emerging graphic novel field.

Storey proved to be one of the finest professors of illustration, teaching at various times at many of the finest commercial art schools in America. 1976 found Storey moving from New York to Los Angeles to become Chairman of Illustration at his alma mater, Art Center College of Design.

Recalling how they had been inspired by Storey's journals, some of these artists helped in securing Storey a contract with Tundra publishing. The Tundra published Marat/Sade Journals appeared in 1993 as a limited edition leather bound hardback. This was the first opportunity many of the Storey's fans had to see his personal, non-commercial art, and the book went on to be nominated for a Harvey Award as Best Graphic Album.  He returned to New York City May 18th, 2001 to accept the Educator of the Year Award from the Society of Illustrators.

Andrea Wicklund was raised in the remotest corner of Wisconsin, in a house on a hill among cornfields, by a schoolteacher mother and an engineer father who at one time led a company that makes recycling trucks. Before she reached her teens, she was splitting logs at the family woodcutting camp and operating the riveting machine in their basement workshop. Fortunately, neither of these activities cost her any fingers, and she was also able to begin drawing at the side of her uncle, a wildlife painter. Andrea momentarily pursued a career in law before rejecting that path as inadequately sleep-depriving. She chose art instead.

Armed with a degree in illustration from San Francisco's Academy of Art College, she duped a confused receptionist into letting her into an art director's office. Two months later, her first illustration appeared in Spin magazine. Andrea's work has since appeared in Rolling Stone, Vibe, the Society of Illustrators Annual, etc. She has twice attended the Illustration Academy, and has been invited to lecture there and at Academy of Art College. Current projects include concept work for the videogame and entertainment industries.

A realist painter living in Austin, Texas. Graydon is both trained in and an exponent of the atelier method which emphasizes classical painting techniques. His parents, collectors of American and European nineteenth-century art, exposed him to painting at a young age and influenced his choice to pursue an academic figurative style.

Parrish attended the Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts and graduated in 1988. Unable to find further classical art training, he learned of the newly formed New York Academy of Art in the summer of that year created by Andy Warhol and Stuart Pivar. There, Parrish joined other students who have become leading figures in the classical art revival, including Jacob Collins, founder of the Grand Central Academy of Art where Parrish is now an instructor. It is also at the New York Academy where Parrish met his mentor Michael Aviano, a student himself of illustrator and muralist Frank J. Reilly.

Since then Parrish has remodeled color theories by Albert Munsell and Josef Albers to fit traditional painting methods. In some ways, he and his colleagues share the reformist attitude of the Stuckist movement in England and are likewise often at odds with mainstream critical taste.
