"Giant Bear"

Heiko Müller

About me: Heiko Müller (b. 1968 in Hamburg, Germany) has a diploma in illustration and design from the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences, owns a small media design agency together with his best friends and likes HipHop as deeply as old books with animal illustrations. His art has been treading on various grounds in the past -such as illustration and digital compositions- and it is only recently that he returned to painting and drawing, currently exploring the borderlines between rural folk art, B-movie aesthetics and the Flemish masters. Outside his native country his paintings and drawings have been shown in Estonia, Paris, Saint Petersburg, Los Angeles, New York, Sacramento and San Diego, and he is the only non U.S.-citizen with a membership card of the Art Dorks collective. He is married, lives in Hamburg and his favourite pastime are long drawing sessions with his seven-year-old son.
