JBAK is a creative partnership between artists/painters James Bullough and Addison Karl. Each artist brings his unique vision and style to their combined body of work. Bullough’s main focus is photo-realism, with attention to ambient and deep space, layers, and geometric forms. He combines contemporary street art techniques and materials with those of realist oil painters, creating pieces of vivid color and masterful detail. Conversely, Addison’s work is produced using a hatch drawing style, which utilizes fine lines and details to create fantastic illustrations of both diminutive and immense images and proportions.

Originally from Baltimore and Seattle, Bullough and Addison currently live and work in Berlin. Though their styles and approaches are different, their shared interests in art and culture and their desires to experiment within the limitlessness of their mediums, brought them together. Their mutual love of travel, urban societies, and the people who inhabit them, led to the development of a more cohesive theme of unity and humanity.

JBAK have blended their contrasting styles into a mashup of antonyms: realism vs. illustrative, expressive vs. precise, hard vs. soft, black vs. a spectrum. The pair seeks desirable locations paying close attention to the space and the people that live and work within it. Their intent is not to disrupt but rather, to integrate their art into the existing environment, creating harmony, balance, and adding life to an otherwise colorless wall. Together, JBAK create large-scale murals, which highlight their differing design aesthetics while at the same time, reaching a common goal—to give people a reason to look up, around, and beyond themselves.

Curated by Etsy - Berlin

Artist Karl Addison & James Bullough will be working on their next and largest to date mural in Berlin. The mural is curated by Etsy and will be near the heart of Kreuzberg. Addison's work will entail an elderly women from one of his adventures to Tel Aviv. Her gaze will be towards Ritterstr - she is the idea of life, inspiration & history. Bullough's contribution to the mural will be creating movement and energy both in the background and wrapping it in to the foreground with the elderly lady. Bullough will accomplish this with his trademark arrows and repetition of elements throughout the composition. Their combined work will be tied together with a cool color palette of monochromatic purples with some highlighted pinks.
