After creating an Instagram profile to showcase their art, they began to attract the attention of fans and brands alike, eventually leading to collaborations with big-name clients such as Marvel, Colmar, Variety, Mercedes-Benz, Armani, Estathé, Ray-Ban, NBA2k, and Empire Magazine. They have also created illustrations for musicians and bands like Jovanotti, Pearl Jam, and Bon Jovi.
