The Artist Gotham Deserves!

Proton is a self-taught printmaker, painter, and designer based in Charleston, SC. His artwork mirrors his positive, upbeat personality, featuring reimagined pop culture characters from comic books, movies, cartoons, video games, and more in a simplified, whimsical style. A former graffiti artist, Proton shifted his focus from the streets to the studio in 2009, and frequently travels around the country showcasing his work at various conventions. His work can be seen on the cover of "Geek Art: An Anthology" (Chronicle Books), the trophies for the winners of the 2015 Charleston City Paper Music Awards, and a convention center or pop up near you!
