Biography
Huck Gee moved to San Francisco in the early 90's pursuing the venerable life of a b-boy. Maintaining day jobs that expanded his artistic vocabulary; he spent his nights testing his skills, and his weekends searching for inspiration. Graphic design by day, graffiti by night, studying Miyamoto Musashi on the weekends. He later culled his skills as an illustrator, allowing him to explore more commercial art styles and delve into the alluring world of Japanese and Hong Kong pop art.
Over the last few years, the demand for his illustrations and custom figures has grown quite immense. With small runs of original prints and hand crafted custom toys selling out in seconds online and shipping to art collectors worldwide.
In addition, Huck has released numerous production toys through Kidrobot including figures for The Standard, DJ Qbert and a series of figures for Barney's New York which come immaculately dressed in the 2005 spring collections of five of the world's most famous fashion designers: Marc Jacobs, Dries Van Noten, Jil Sander, Rick Owens, and Duckie Brown.
Not to be confined to the role of just toy designer and illustrator, Huck has also leaped into the fashion industry. With dozens of new pieces being released through Kidrobot he also recently launched a line of jewelry with Random Nature and has his own clothing line in production to be unveiled in 2007.
Huck recently hired his third assistant and opened a studio in San Francisco. The coming year brings a full schedule with signings and events planned worldwide, new prints, even more custom figures, and numerous new toy designs for Kidrobot, Qbert, ToyQube, Toy2R, Circus Punks, and Play Imaginative to name a few.
When not busy planning world domination Huck spends his free time chasing skirts and pretending to be a race car driver.
