Mike Mitchell

Mike has been drawing since he was 6 and is a self proclaimed “gamer” so it comes as no surprise what influences some of his work. He recently took part in the “I am 8-bit” show where video games and art combine to make for an interesting show.

Maybe I Could Get Her to Do a Mural In My Crib...LOL







Armed with a marker pen, Lucy McLauchlan is a dangerous woman. She has been known to draw on just about anything from paper, to skateboard decks, abandon cars to airplane gliders. Her spontaneous drawings explore the world around her, friends, work and life. Her array of characters emerge from her imagination and flow as freely as her pen will take her.

I Like This Joint : Ferris Plock





Ferris Plock is an artist living and working in the city of San Francisco. His work is primarily character-based imagery that incorporates his passion for storytelling. Surrealist and seemingly innocent, Ferris’ work doesn’t subscribe to any particular genre. Based on sketches, his artwork more often than not incorporates animals or monsters in everyday human conditions- going to work, dodging splashes from cars, walking their pets, or some other scenario involving his amazing creatures.

Positive Thought of the Day

“Think like a queen. A queen is not afraid to fail. Failure is another steppingstone to greatness.” --- Oprah Whinfrey

WOOOOOOOOW !!!!

Defill and Milcke have collaborated to bring us Nike’s Made of Fruit. This is one of the craziest things I have ever seen! Talk about getting creative, and I thought I was cool because I was about to carve some AJ III’s in my pumpkin for halloween. The Air Max One and the Nike Dunk are the two versions of these fruit based shoes.

If I had to guess, it looks like some tomatoes, maybe some eggplant, and some lemon make for a nice colorway on the Air Max One. While the Dunk seems to be maid of cucumber, some kiwi skins, and some orange peels. Props to these folks for using all those leftovers in such an incredible way.
