Originally from California,
Biskup was raised on Disneyland, Ratfink, badly dubbed Japanese
Sci-Fi movies, punk rock, skateboarding, and underground comics. In
the mid-eighties he attended the Otis/Parsons school in L.A.
but quickly dropped out and turned to the illicit world of illustration.
He had brief stints with several skateboard companies and record
labels, including his heroes, THE RESIDENT'S Ralph Records label.
But it was his obessession with the art of Mary Blair that led
him to consider a career in animation. This career has involved
him in countless cartoons, including his own short "Freddy
Seymore's Amazing Life" for Nickelodeon and he is currently
Background Supervisor for Cartoon Network's "Time Squad." It
is the culmination of these activities and influences that have
shaped his work.
In 1998, Biskup began hosting and curating the Burning Brush
auctions. He has been included in various art shows, including
2001's "Truth Show" in which his art is featured on the
catalog cover. He was recently included in House Industries
"Planet of the Apes" issue and has an upcoming show at the Copro/Nason
Gallery. Biskup has also launched a line of tee shirts and gift
items under the GAMA-GO
label.
