The Tinker Brothers are stencil artists from the Netherlands. They are known for their signature style of invisible paintings.[1]

Life and work

[edit]

In 2012, they dropped out of their respective studies at the University of Applied Sciences and the University of Technology and quit their jobs to fulfill their dream of becoming artists.[2] They spend the next years experimenting with different techniques and media.[3]

What turned out to be a process of years, growing through different styles and media, they eventually discovered their signature style; merging the rawness and honesty of stencil art as a technique with the punch of pop, subtlety, and profoundness of minimalism.[4]

They use bold, powerful yet simple imagery in their work[5] about love, the troubles of this world, beauty, and truth.[3][6]
