Buff Monster lives in Hollywood and cites heavy metal music, ice cream and Japanese culture as major influences. The color pink, as a symbol of confidence, individuality and happiness, is present in everything he creates. He was originally known for putting up thousands of hand-silkscreened posters across Los Angeles and also in far-away places. Now he works exclusively on fine art paintings, collectible toys and select design projects. Buff Monster works tirelessly day and night to spread happiness, joy and a love of pink. Life is Sweet, Buff Monster's first book, takes you deep inside of his happy pink universe. This book shows the range of his creative output: sketches, paintings, toys, street posters, public paintings, in progress photos and everything in between. Having worked as a Creative Director for magazines for many years, Buff Monster took the majority of photos, edited them, and laid out the whole book himself. The result is a personal look at this artist's work just the way he wants you to see it. Lots of color art, much of it pink. 8" x 10". "As we flipped through, we kept thinking, 'Wow... everything is in here.' If you're a die-hard Buff Monster fan or simply curious about his work, this is a must. Very well done and packed with great pics. Life is Sweet is worth a long look." -vinylpulse.com
