Ennis Martin was born and raised in Chicago. His childhood was filled with inspiring illustrations that he found in comics. The artistry and story-telling that he found in comic books he poured over when he was young led to a healthy appreciation for art and the desire to have a hand in it himself. For a time he dabbled in graffiti; he took a few courses at the International Academy of Art in Chicago and finally he settled into a style and story that permeates throughout his current artwork. Martin identifies his expression in art as primarily self-taught and continues to devote himself to perfecting his craft in his Chicago home and studio.

Joey D (aka Joey Depakakibo) is a Filipino American artist, animator and motion designer. He was born and raised in Chicago where he also received a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago studying drawing, 3D animation, and traditional animation. Growing up in the late 70s, 80s, and early 90s he watched a lot of television and played many hours of video games. Reading comic books and eating tons of junk food has also messed up his brain. Trying to make sense of it all, he often finds himself escaping into his world of imaginary friends and other made up things by any means necessary. He is also a father to 2 boys, a husband, and has an alter ego as a corporate douchebag in the world of advertising.
