About

Hey there, beautiful

BROS BEFORE FOES is an ongoing art series designed to make you laugh, leave you enamored, trigger your nerd-rage, and/or satiate your deepest, darkest Rule 34 memelord subreddit fan-fictions.
You're welcome, I think?

BBF is owned and operated by André Guindi, in Toronto, Canada. His days are spent animating cartoons for Nickelodeon; indulging in the finest margherita pizzas the city has to offer; obliterating JRPG bosses; obsessing over creating new designs, prints, and pins to share with you; and spending all his hard-earned disposable income on pop-culture paraphernalia.

We at BBF believe that there's a tad too much haterade in the world, and that we could all benefit from a good bro-hug and a little love. Okay, a LOT of love. Our art strives to blur the boundaries of heteronormativity through iconoclastic images that will—at the very least—spark a conversation about gender expression, feminism, and emotional connections.

All of our artwork is hand drawn by André using a combination of traditional and digital mediums to achieve that super rad, electric aesthetic you're here to drop some cash on to hang up on your walls and wear on your bod. Each bromance piece is inspired by lyrics of 70's Rock, 80's Pop, and 90's R&B. Can you find all the not-so-subtle references to each one?

BROS BEFORE FOES can be found at comic conventions and artisan markets all over North America, and sold in the raddest retails stores near you. Follow us on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter to find out where we'll be next!
