*Branche Coverdale*

Branche Coverdale is an artist based in Philadelphia. Originally from Yonkers, New York, Branche works in an expressive and playful manner inspired by silkscreen methods he acquired during his time at Rhode Island School of Design, seamlessly combining cartoons, pop culture, and his experiences in major cities in his playful and vibrant art. In particular, he traveled between New York and Japan for years as a studio assistant for Takashi Murakami.  He celebrates the fusion of these influences, exploring themes such as city life, representation, and the blurred lines between reality and fiction, using iconic symbols that have shaped our collective consciousness. He is currently working as a full-time illustrator as well as working in painting and fine arts.

Recognition and awards include Mural Arts Fellowship for Black Artists (2022), New York Times Best Illustrations (2024), and Best of Philly (2025). Recent commissioned projects include public murals partnering with Living Walls/Adult Swim, Mural Arts at Schuykill Yards, and Global Philadelphia Association. His commercial work spans major editorial projects, including illustrations for the cover of the New York Times Sports section and NYT 30 Daily Spot Illustrations for Page A3. Selected Interviews/Press: Artblog • Meer • Artblog
