Krysztof Nemeth is a Seattle based artist specializing in fetish, gothic, retro, and low-brow kulture pin-up illustration. For the past ten years, Krysztof has been making a name for himself creating saucy pin-up girls for everything from bands to burlesque troupes, gallery shows to rock shows, and clothing stores to private commissions.

Taking cues from the historic masters of pin-up art, underground fetish illustrators, and cheesecake photography, Krysztof has developed a style that is sharp and clean, sensual and fun. Working primarily in black and white, the work Krysztof creates is strongly graphical in nature, composing in a near calligraphic manner, drawings that are wildly voluptuous and rich in depth. His girlie art is fun and sexy, depicting an inherent sense of humor and playfulness in its ribald sensuality.

Krysztof’s pin-up girls have been featured in many magazines, including Skin Two, Secret, Fetish, Scoot!, and Gothic Beauty. This year, Krysztof has again been accepted into the Seattle Erotic Art Festival, where he’s shown every year since its inception.

Recently, Krysztof’s work has been shown at Seattle’s famed Roq La Rue, in the esteemed New York gallery Art@Large, The Dirty Detroit erotic art show, and has been a featured artist at Pittsburgh’s Blue Ruin and Vancouver’s JEM Gallery and Tart Gallery events.

In January 2006, Krysztof released “X: The Pin-up Art of Krysztof Nemeth”, a hard-cover book designed and published independently by Krysztof’s own Charm School Art & Design. It has garnered great reviews, has already sold out of it’s initial pressing, and continues to be a popular vehicle to experience the breadth of his work.
2008 brings many new opportunities, and Krysztof continues to show in and around the Seattle area and beyond. Available for commission work and gallery showing, Krysztof can be contacted through his site at charmed@charm-school.com
