2025 (2/6)

Prints, hats, post cards, patches, heavyweight tees, buttery soft tees- I was figuring out the collection in depth as I went; based on feedback & what people wanted. I found out that people are willing to pay more for better quality, especially when the art is better quality than my competitors. The quality of the art is what differentiates me. It can make you think, with a distinctive style. I have an edge & it’s proven time & time again over many years. 

I took a solo trip to San Diego/ Borrego Springs. It was a spiritual trip, similar to Hawaii. Koneohe, Hawaii & Borrego Springs are the places my mom grew up in. It was a great experience to absorb the sights, sounds, smells, & movement of this small desert town. 

 

 

 

 

 

Jillian took me out for my birthday; surprised me with a couple of great friends, all born & raised in NYC. 

My childhood good friend stopped by, Jonathan. He purchased one of the coolest pieces in the store.
