There are a few “old school” living legends still alive from the graffiti art movement. Out of these one of the most consistent is this man Lin Felton, aka QUIK, aka QK, aka KWIK.


Since the early 1970s he’s been an active painter on the trains and since the 80s he has been painting canvases and exhibiting around the world. When collectors speak of collecting artists like Rammellzee and Dondi White I tend to remind them that there are living artists that are important and should be supported because they matter and are instrumental in this art movement. Lin is one of these artists. In honor of him, his life’s work and also because it’s black American history - I salute him. He’s a king. I don’t forget and neither should you. – Alan Ket
