D*Face, alias Dean Stockton is a street artist who uses a multitude of techniques combining aerosol painting, stickers, posters, and stencils.

He grew up in London and developed a strong interest in graffiti at a young age. This was thanks to Henry Chalfant's coverage of New York subway graffiti in «Spraycan Art» and "Subway Art." As a teenager, the graphics on skateboard decks and the covers of Thrasher magazine further fueled his keen interest in stickers. He took an illustration and design course and worked as a freelance illustrator/designer, all while developing his style on the street. His major inspirations include Shepard Fairey's well-known "Obey Giant" art campaign, Jim Philips, as well as hip hop, punk music, and popular cartoons.
