News!

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: This webshop is officially closed until August 18th, due to my move to New Orleans and then a much-needed vacation to the woods of Michigan. The links to my menu pages where you can order products have been disabled from this home page; if you have a product page bookmarked, you might still be able to access it, but be advised, ANY ORDERS PLACED WILL NOT GET SHIPPED OUT UNTIL LATE AUGUST. So be forewarned. My Etsy shop will also be closed as of Wednesday, July 9th. However, my Cafe Press site will still be functional; although it does not contain all of my designs, it does have my Obama designs as well as several of my New Orleans-related designs, so feel free to order from there while I'm gone.

My Barack Obama stencil prints will be available again via my Etsy shop in late August. Please contact me if you'd like to get on a waiting list for when I return from the move and vacation. You can read my blog for more background info on the prints and the design. Great for your favorite Obamaniac!

So far I have sold SEVENTEEN (17) prints and EIGHTEEN (18) t-shirts (and one hand-stencilled tie!), generating $180 for the Barack Obama campaign. (I'll continue to make donations in increments of $25 or more as it accumulates.)

In preparation for MichFest this August, I've done a very short run of my fest-inspired "butch enough" and "we're in the fucking woods!" designs, on men's Hanes ribbed a-tanks. I only printed THREE of each size: small, medium, large, xl and 2xl, for both designs. Pre-sale of these tanks is now over, as the shop is officially closed til after fest, but come find me working in One World or at the Worker's Craft Sale during MichFest to get one!

My Obama Believe stencil designs are now available via Cafe Press! Both red and blue versions can now grace a wide range of sizes, colors and styles of t-shirts, tanks and other apparel, as well as mugs, tote bags, stickers and magnets! Fun!

Of course I will continue to produce my one-of-a-kind spray paint stencil t-shirts and prints and sell them via my Etsy shop, but particularly for the next two months, Cafe Press will be a good option for those not able to wait until I'm settled in New Orleans and back from MichFest and back in full production mode.

If you've been reading my blog, then you know I have a new design!

It is a tribute design to NOLA Rising, and since I first printed it and started to get some feedback on it, I have struck a strategic partnership with NOLA Rising to produce spray paint stencil prints. Half of the profits from the sales of all NOLA Rising design prints will be donated back to NOLA Rising, to help them in their efforts to spread free public art around New Orleans. I just listed some prints on my Etsy shop, so check 'em out! All of them are one-of-a-kind, and hand-sprayed.

The Obama bike spoke cards are finally in! I have dropped some off downtown at Derby City Espresso in Louisville; they can also be found for free at Bicycle Michael's in New Orleans and they are available via Obamaspoke.com for only ONE DOLLAR! Just to be clear, I don't have anything to do with the Obamaspoke.com website, though I heartily endorse it; it's being handled by some folks out on the west coast. I'm not really feeling like I'm gonna do much shipping out of the few cards that I have, but if you see me in person, I'll be happy to give you some. And of course, if you are making a purchase from my webshop or Etsy shop, and you want some, just let me know and I'll include some in your order when I ship out.
