Simon Peplow lives within a delicately constructed vortex. He retains a love/hate relationship with the city he resides in, and dreams of a peaceful life in the country. He spends the majority of his days downloading information from a tiny cabin situated inside the Corpus Callosum region of his noggin. Characters are a fundamental part of his work, described by many as whimsical, cute and sinister in equal measures, he just wishes they were his friends.  Simon is co-founder of The Outcrowd Collective and a proud member of the Banjo People. He has gratefully been bothered by a variety of national and international clients some of which include, Plan B, Sidewalk, Anorak and The Illustrated Ape magazine, Mother Agency (New York), Lodown (Germany), Modart (Switzerland), Teen Vogue (US), The Artists Guide (New York), H&M, Pointer Footwear and Suburban Bliss Clothing. He was also featured in the 2005 book "Concrete to Canvas: Skateboarders' Art".  So far Simon has spent a relatively happy 28 years of his life tinkering about on Mother Earth.
