Phil Shafer (‘00 Photo New Media)

Phil Shafer, aka Sike Style, channels his creative energy in many ways. For 17 years, he has run his successful art business, Sike Style Industries, while working full-time as a designer for the Kansas Life Science Research Center at the University of Kansas Medical Center. His creative practice includes fine art paintings, 2D design and print graphics. 

His love of street art and graffiti led him to community and corporate projects as a muralist. Murals allow Shafer to transform bland or vandalized surfaces with colorful, positive and uplifting imagery that inspire and create dialogue. Sikestyle.com
