Webuyyourkids is Sonny Day & Biddy Maroney, from Sydney. They began working together in 2006, making screen-printed tour posters for Popfrenzy Records and these days make artwork for loads of different things. Alot of it is still music related (CD covers / posters / the occasional video), but we also do illustration for different ad campaigns, magazines, branding for cafes, paint murals on walls and we exhibit stuff in galleries too.

WeBuyYourKids are also speakers at Look Hear on the 31st March. Don't miss it.
