So people have been telling us for years that we should sell our own things/designs. Well we finally started. Right now there is only a couple things up there, but we have more in the works and the page should be updated really soon. We are also looking for stores that want to carry our things, so if you are interested, email us.

American Apparel is trying to open a store at 988 valencia and that has ruffled some feathers around the mission. I think that they would be the only corporate store on valencia, but i might be wrong about that, but here is a link to what is going on in the fight.

Uploaded a few pictures of Barry's Bridge installed at the Di Rosa Preserve. The Di Rosa Preserve is really nice place to visit. A ton of art spread out over 460 arces in Sonoma. When i was up there, I got talking to one of the directors of the Preserve. I asked him about the lake and if they stocked it with fish or not. He said that they did and they are actually now having a problem where the bass have over populated the lake by breeding and some of the bass have gotten so big that they are feeding on the baby ducks. Never heard of that problem before.

changed the main menu of our site to include links to our sample photos on Flickr for both the tshirts and poster/flatstock printing.

Does anyone know where are all the good lakes/swiming holes around in this area???? No one seems to know. We went up to Bass Lake last year, and that's place is most epic, but there has to be others. Do you have any suggestions??

All the designs are fun and are printed in limited runs. The shirts are super soft top of the line tees from Alternative Apparel.

Karen, the founder, was over here the other day picking up tees and told us that she created a discount code for us and our friends. She said feel free to post it on your blog or whatever, so here it is. The code to enter is: APE015 (that's a zero) for 15% off at mailboxtees.com! Your Welcome.

Here's a few photos of a wedding invitation that we just completed. We concepted, designed, printed, milled, sanded, hole punched, assembled, cut, ripped down on a table saw, etc etc etc. for a client who knew our personal work and gave us complete freedom to do what we wanted. I'll attach the only mockup they saw at the bottom of this post and note the colors changed at the last minute due to the color of the paper and the lack of contrast.
