Info: Nick Mann (aka Doodles) is San Francisco based street artist who's eye grabbing work can be simply described as modern day folk art (only it's not that simple). His creations are a complicated combination of delicately wheat-pasted pieces of paper, gritty spray paint, and eerie neon nordic creatures. He's "shown" on gallery walls and on the sides of buildings around the world. Nick, in a nutshell, is the anonymous person that pasted up that beautiful character on the wall that you admire everyday as you ride the
bus to work.

At a recent zine making residency at British Columbia's Islands Fold, Luke Ramsey described Nick and his work by saying, "He gives us hope, because with conscious, smart, free spirited, funny and positive people like Nick- the world is a beautiful place to be."
