We only had a bit of time so we started with an old print of his, I washed in a tiny bit of purple, and sewed some bits of painted paper stuff into it, then he printed back on it, and I sewed into it some more, and he painted a bit more and here’s what we came up with (detail underneath):

The show opens Nov. 5th, 2009 and runs for two weeks. Be sure to check it out if you’re in London!

I was working crazy hours for a minute there (actually a couple months) on a TV production. Turns out offices are really not the place that I shine

BUT – now I’m in an awesomely creative, huge print studio with a bunch of other print artists and I finally have actual ROOM to make stuff, not just my bedroom to make stuff! There’s room for me to set up and sew, and I’ve been printing these awesome hoodies and tshirts with reflective silk screen ink. Here’s a backside photo of one that I hand dyed.  I just brought a few over to Orange 20 so go check em out!

PaperWorks Laboratories (who is also selling my photo book) is rocking a black one of these hoodies, as is Cole from team Rapha, and Randy from Team Midnight Ridazz who is up in SF about to head back down to LA by bicycle with the AIDS Life Cycle!

The Party is this Sat night at Orange 20 Bikes and is sponsored by PBR (yum;) Please see the flyer below for RSVP info!

There are 27 black and white photo’s in this 4″ x 5.5″ soft cover book. The shots are from different places I’ve been  to and different rides, races and events I was lucky enough to be a part of.  Including Black Label’s Bike Kill in Brooklyn, the Bicycle Kitchen and Los Angelopes in LA, bike messenger championships (CMWC’s and NACCC’s) and Worldcup velodrome championships on a wooden velodrome, street shots of fixed gear tricksters under the BQE and kids fixing bicycles in DTLA and the Lower East Side, a couple of my favorite artists rendering bicycles into their work.

Each has a hand printed cover with a stitched binding in neon orange thread.
