The Recipe of Purebred

Wednesday Kirwan, Illustrator & fine artist- Purebred 2011

Purebred is a super creative, local team of director/photographer Jason Mitchell and set designer/photo illustrator Stacey Ransom. They mix up a mean stew of imagery, culling all forms of art to create one mind-blowing narrative image. The list of ingredients to produce their final output is long - expert set design, fashion design, crazy props, makeup art and fine art - wrapped up in incredible photographs and finished off with digital skills to make your world shake. With a little help from their many talented friends, too many to credit here.

The artist, Attaboy, merged with one of his vinyl toys, " Axtrx" - Purebred

The team produces beautiful tableaus - portraits of a surreal and fantastic nature, capturing the essence of a fine artist or a mood behind an emotion. Incorporating the style, themes, and/or actual artwork - with an image of the artist into each portrait. Fooling the eye and blurring the line between fantasy and reality they create truly fantastic portraits. Some upcoming subjects include: JL Schnabel (Bloodmilk), CRAWW, 100taur and Zach Tutor of Supersonic Electronic.
