FsM x Timberland x CYPHER 13 Shoe Collab for Spring 2008
09.10.07
I was approached by Timberland Shoes last Fall about doing some designs for their new outdoor lifestyle
kicks they're releasing this coming Spring. I even got my homies down at Joy Engine involved, and we
ended up with a limited run series featuring artwork from TEEBEE, Jason Thielke, Alex Henry, and myself. Here are a few shots that dropped into CYPHER 13 headquarters that I got to photograph, a few with
the Hasselblad H3D camera I happened to be testing out that day.
FALL ROLLS IN.. Some New Works Emerge from the Chaos..

Here's an update on some new styles I've been developing in the painting realm. The first is a portrait of a
tree I met in beautiful Yosemite Valley. I started the composition alongside my friend Kris D in his San
Francisco Studio. The other I crafted for one of the monthly art openings at the Joy Engine. The two pieces
can be considered gateways into some new concepts I've been playing around with.. .. More on that soon, maybe a series or two, but
definitely expect the thought to elaborate.

sAne x TEEBEE Featured at 2007 Outdoor Retailer -SLC!! 09.01.07
Mid August this year TEEBEE & I had a chance to rep some live styles at the OR (Outdoor Retailer) event
in Salt Lake City. The folks at Timberland organized it, I flew straight from Kris D's Studio in SF, and I was
completely psyched to throw down some live painting for a change. TB rocked some really dope transfer
pieces, and on the last day (four days) we hosted a party at which I Juggled a live VJ and DJ set simultan-
eously while TEEBEE screen printed shirts, all live .. fresh!
We also auctioned off all the work we created that weekend and donated the proceeds to charity. It was
definitely good to see some of my homies in the climbing world representin' their respective projects,
including my friends at SoILL Cryptochild, Urban Climber, and Evolv . I also got a chance to meet and
chill with Joe Kinder, one of Timberland's other sponsored athletes..
While the gathering was fun in its many ways, four long days spent inside a stale convention center had me
ready for my next destinations; a stint on the East Coast to see the parents in NY and Edward Hopper's
Museum show in Boston. Before I knew it I was back in Boulder getting ready for my next adventure; the
infamous PLAYA at the Burning Man Gathering...
