Even before attending New Jersey's DuCret School of Art, master illustrator Mike Kupka knew he wanted to be an artist. From copying the Sunday comics in the newspaper as a kid, to creating commissioned images of rock stars like Ozzy Osbourne, Kupka has become one of today's most talented and sought-after painters. He delights fans and collectors alike with his special affinity for villians like Dracula and Disney's own Cruella de Vil and Captain Hook. Soft lines and a rustic palette add a deep and intriguing dimension to Kupka's work.
