UPSO!!!
Dustin Amery Hostetler, aka UPSO, is one of my favorite fellow artists. I’ve been in touch with him for quite a while now, have shared magazine pages with him, and met him when his band Stylex came through Chicago. He’s a cool all around dude with some of the most accurate and compositionally impressive vector illustrations I’ve ever seen. You absolutely have got to go to his site and check out the ‘18 HipHop Power Hustlas’ illustration for Rap-Up Magazine. Unreal how crisp and clean they all are. Every single illustration, especially the Missy Elliot, Lil’ Jon, and T.I., is perfect with the exception of the albino looking Damon Dash. Haha. Sorry Dustin. Anyways, his client list and technical graphics are impressive too…just check the site out already. Dustin also runs Faesthetic Magazine. On another note, I have an air duster can on my desk that is only shooting out that super cold frost chemical stuff, even when held upright. Sucks.
