Gallery on Main Artist of the Month, Leo "The Mimik" Alban

Gallery on Main's Artist of the Month series features an exhibition of mixed-media work by New Jersey-based muralist and illustration artist Leo "The Mimik" Alban from April 1 through 30. Admission is free, and the paintings are available for purchase.

Join Gallery on Main for the opening reception on Saturday, April 6, from 5:00 to 7:00 pm. The Mimik says, “I celebrate to explore and inspire all things FRESH by definition, and to continue to innovate and create.”

He was always doodling wherever he went: on napkins, paper, blackbooks, and eventually on walls. Being a huge comic book collector and Japanese anime fan—a style that fit in well to his graffiti adventures—The Mimik blended this fascination and use of watercolors into his drawings. It also led him to create personalized work with the talents of the WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment).
