ARTIST STATEMENT: CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
The work that I create is the line of demarcation between traditional art techniques and
digital graphic design. From graffiti art and illustration, to vector graphics and rasterized
images, the fusion of these contrasting elements are a direct representation of my surroundings
and how I see them.
BIO
From crayons to krylon, Leon “Tes One” Bedore has been creating art on walls
for the majority of his life. Tes became a serious street artist in 1992, painting murals
and graffiti art throughout the Tampa Bay area. In 1999, he expanded on his natural artistic
abilities, with that of the computer age, to develop compelling graphic design and web
pages for a number of clients.
Now, Tes One is combining all that he knows from his street-art roots and his digital
design profession, to create works of art that accurately depicts his perspective and
the world around him. The end result of his work demonstrates the craft of his design
as well as the rawness of his stenciled street art.
