      @Oaktavia I went to the New School, in NYC for a year taking art classes. We were assigned to drape material and paint it. My first attempt was criticized For being to small for the size of the paper.

              @RoxRocks86 commissioned me to make these prints of her 777 21oz. I am stoked on how they turned out. The first ones are on 44" x 30" heavyweight printmaking paper and the latter ones are on small canvas. Check out the aftermath! I literally rolled indigo acrylic paint onto the pants and printed them.

                                      Received the artwork from @Oaktavia a lot sooner than expected! Super thrilled and happy with the results. Posted the unboxing of the full print on ig 🙂

                                        @Oaktavia took my vision of getting a pair of denim printed and did an amazing job executing it. Just for context, for those that don’t know I was born & raised in Hawaii, still live on Oahu. There’s a lot of Japanese influence from food, language (words/phrases we use in pidgin), etc . Gyotaku is something fisherman/locals still do most likely do it for fun to record their catch. I have a few acquaintances/co workers who fish on the weekends and “might” print something. This piqued my curiosity to see if it would work with denim. Hence, asking Stevie if he’d print one of my retired denims. Came out excellent and the proof is in the pics (above).
