We’re taking our Always Play Amongst Friends show down to LA with our good buddy James of The Aesthetic Union. The good folks at Poketo have kindly agreed to hosting us in the gallery space of their flagship store. Opening reception October 9th, 6-8pm, Poketo: 820 E 3rd St, Los Angeles, CA 90013

There will be 4 new letterpress prints in addition to new color ways of the previous 4 from the SF show. A secret additional print will be given as a bonus to the first 25 who purchase our Keep Fresh, Stay Rad box set from Poketo.

The fun doesn’t stop there. There will also be a pop-up portion of the shop that will be curated by us.

re-up

Digitized & Drawn by Dennis Payongayong

I’ve wanted to do a Clipse inspired post for some time as they’ve always balanced the raw and real with wit and intelligence. Our Skillshare class “Why We Letter” was the perfect opportunity to pay homage.

My Morning Son

Digitized & Drawn by Jason Wong

For our Skillshare class ‘Why We Letter’, I chose the opening line from True Faith by New Order. That song has always been one of my favorites and the older I get, that first line continues to grow in meaning for me.
