Devin Kratzer

A central Pennsylvania local my entire life. I grew up heavily influenced by the cover art of heavy metal and hair bands from the 80s as well horror movies and pop culture artwork of the 80s and 90s. Later that imagery got intertwined with skateboard graphics and street art. I’ve always been pulled towards creating from my early days of drawing comic books to later making my own stenciled apparel in high school to eventually in 2012 starting my own clothing company called Face Monster… which would pull from all of those styles of art. Screenprinting seemed to come naturally for me. I have such an appreciation for the screenprinting and graphic design industry and a more intense love for the apparel I create both for myself and for my clients.
