Featured Artist

MATT DEANS mattdeans.com


Matt is a Richmond illustrator that is fond of the #3 round inkbrush and robots. He's works in digital printing during the day and draws in the evenings until his hand cramps up, sometimes waking up drooling on his work in the middle of the night.

TOM BATTEN


Tom Batten is a multiple award winning geneticist and author. His forthcoming self-help book, "The Charles Manson Guide to Getting the Love You Want" has been pro-actively banned by most civilized nations. His hobbies include learning more about you and acting upon this information.

MEG OLSON shatterlands.com


This gameboy-addicted roustabout has spent most of her natural life scribbling on something, and is rumored to have a crush on fellow team 8 artist Rawn Gandy. She currently divides her time between making comics and scooping cat-poop.

RAWN Z. GANDY rawngandy.com


Translated from vagrantese 'Rawn' means potato toes. He is a self-proclaimed comic artist who fancies the absurd. Currently, he is attending grad school with delusions of high tootin' professor-ness.

PATRICK GODFREY explosiveinanity.blogspot.com


Pat loves comics. He reads them, writes them, draws them, and even sells them. He is also an expert at getting you to love comics, so watch out.

MARIYAH PANTYUKHINA


Mariyah is currently a student at Virginia Commonwealth, but is already developing a wide array of illustration styles.

JAMES CALLAHAN barfcomics.com


Comics, album covers, skate decks, t shirts, band posters, stickers, toilet seat covers ... This guy will draw on anything! Jim's work has always been a local Richmond favorite and recently has been blowing the brains and barf out of fans across the galaxies.

KELLY ALDER popidiocy.com


Kelly's been working as an illustrator for a little while now, with bouts of success both here in Richmond as well as NYC. His artwork benefits from his years of experience and his continuing curiosity for new processes. He's also developed a really fun tshirt line with the help of his rambuctious wife and kids.

BARRY BRUNER barrybruner.com


A native Virginian, Barry is a free-lance illustrator living in Brooklyn. His work has received recognition and honors from The Society of Illustrators, 3x3 Magazine, the Richmond Illustrators Club, and others. He is very excited that Team 8 has allowed his current book project, "Dictators!" to expand to a poster series.

SPENCER HANSEN team8press.com/print


A founding member of Team 8 back in 2003. This guy has been screen printing more or less non-stop since. He's also dividing his time between illustration, design, and web developement.

NOAH SCALIN skulladay.blogspot.com


Noah is a full time designer with Another Limited Rebellion here in Richmond, VA. He just wrapped up a most ambitious project called Skull-A-Day, wherein he created a new work of art every day centered around a skull.

THIS IS TEAM EIGHT


Serigraphy, silk screening, or screen printing, call it what you will, but Team Eight simply has a soft spot for it. We like to help other artists, designers and illustrators take a break from their daily grinds and enjoy the honest satisfaction of the silk screening process. In no time we've got them putting squeegee to ink, ink to a screen, and a screen to paper, T-shirts, or anything else and loving every minute of it. Look out for new work and artists every couple of weeks or so.


CONTACT US


All of our works are limited editions. Each is hand pulled, signed, and numbered by the artists. To contact an individual artist click on their link in the ARTISTS section. To contact Team Eight as a whole, send an email to: spencer@team8press.com.
