"As far as the history of Lamour Supreme as an artist… Well I got started in the arts pretty early on but got my first taste of exposure when I was 16. I had sent in a letter to Thrasher Magazine with a zombie Batman on the envelope hoping that it would get published. Out of the blue, I got an envelope back from Pushead. He was doing a column in Thrasher at the time called Puszone and basically said he wanted to feature my art in Puszone. That blew my mind as a kid because Pushead was already a legend back then. So I did two drawings for him. One of a zombie Batman swinging from a rope doing a judo air which he published right away, and a second drawing of a zombie Batman & Robin which he published at a later date. I’m still trying to get a hold of those issues as I lost my originals from ’86-’87..." - artists own words.

The aesthetic of his paintings, prints, sculptures, and mixed media pieces are illuminated through densely layered colors and textures of acrylic, spray paint, and house paint on distressed or reclaimed wood. With a book in production, his work entering museum halls and his prolific street work covering the US from NY to Miami to LA, Shark Toof is one of the bright new stars in Contemporary Street Art.
