James Jarvis for Stussy

Really cool new t-shirt line designed by James Jarvis for Stussy. Great collab.

SDCC Loot

This was the best year of SDCC I have ever done. People showed me so much love and were so kind with their encouragement! Being a self employed artist means I don't often get feedback, so going to a show and being so supported is just amazing. Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone who came to the Bored Inc. booth! It's because of all of you that I get to do what I love!

It wasn't all work- I did manage to sneak away for a bit and score some goodies! I got two prints from Junko Mizuno's 'Tender Succubus' show at Gallery Nucleus (now I have all 3!), lots of Marshalls by 64 Colors, James Jarvis' King Ken from Strangeco, the TokiDoki SDCC colorways of Captain Coco and Skeletrino and Skeletrina, a print and an original Mr. Toast, and a super cute pea goodie bag from our pals at Conduct Happiness.

Two of my biggest scores came from Kid Robot. I've hated on the attitudes of their employees in the past, but I have to say that the people working the booth at Comic Con this year were SO nice, and even let me trade my duplicate Junko Mizuno 'Pure Trance' Umeko & Takeko duplicates for Rika! So stoked! I also got a few of the new Tado Fortune Pork Plush and also got Cloak from Cannibal Funfair.

I'll upload more pics soon, and I am working on getting all the new product onto my site. A lot of stuff sold out, so if you don't see what you are looking for, be patient, I just have to make more!

James Jarvis

London based artist James Jarvis has always caught my eye- particularly with his toys. I've just happened upon his blog, which had these great takes on everyday signs. Of course, my favorite is the dog poop one. I wish cities would ask artists to create signs like these instead of the same old boring ones we see everyday. I'd be much more inclined to follow the rules if these characters were the ones giving me instructions. Check out James Jarvis' blog here, and buy stuff in his shop here.
