Will Barras, along with Mr. Jago and Steff, is one of the original Scrawl Collective members. He was already on the road to success with the now famous “Hip Hop Don't Stop” sleeves when the Collective first formed. Like his compadre Mr. Jago, Will began his glittering career in a call center. Doodling during work stopped him from going insane, and by holding his pencil in an f’d up way he created a distinctive illustrative style that is like no other. He is one of those artists that it is almost impossible to copy.

Over the years, Will has evolved from the hip hop and skater/bmx graphics that made his name, into areas a great deal wilder and even more unpredictable. His unwillingness to be pinned down has served him well and helped him free himself from the associations that once would have pigeonholed him all too neatly. He went through a rodeo period at one point- furiously painting riders atop raging bulls. This evolved into an interest in hunting scenes set against strangely colored sunsets. Since then his work has become increasingly psychedelic and his murals are simply just strange.

You want proof? Look at his recent mural for The Peoples Republic bar in London or his sleeve art for The Warlocks. He is without doubt a hard worker; dividing his time between a grueling exhibition and event schedule and directing for the Animation Production Company “Bermuda Shorts”. God help him if they ever re-introduce the three day week.
