Ghostpatrol and Miso are two emerging young artists in Melbourne. They are street artists as well as professional artists. Their street art mostly takes the form of paper cut paste-ups that they put up overnight.Their work is original, beautifully-executed drawings that they produce as collaborative works. They've produced 2 books of their work.
This is one of Miso's pasteups.
I love their work and I find it interesting that one of the comments made on the Artscape programme about them was their uniqueness in producing actual pencil drawings, rather than computer-based work. I guess that's where art is heading right now and it's a good thing that there are artists out there who still pick up and use a pencil.
In and exhibition that featured on the Artscape programme there was a close look at pieces that Ghostpatrol has done. They are drawings that he's done using pencils glued together as a drawing surface.

Wow - this Ghostpatrol thing keeps popping up in my life this past few weeks!
You're the third one to identify them. I hadn't heard of them before, and their work is beautiful

I just love that they've worked out a way to comfortably co-create and that by doing that which they love to do they've created a thriving business for themselves.
I also like it that they've continued on as street artists as well, and plan to do that at the same time.
