My Heutchy Collaboration Part 2

Hey friends!
Well I'm excited to finally show you the Collaboration i did with Heutchy Shoes.
Heutchy shoes is one of my all time favorite men's shoe company.
I think they make the best shoes.
So needless to say, i was honored to design fabric for another pair of shoes.
They were looking for a very bright saturated abstract texture of the print.
I played around with a few ideas and this neon leaves idea was what i finally came up with.
I really like how they turned out :)
I still haven't seen them in person, but i'm dying to!
What do you think?
I hope you like them! :)

Heutchy Shoe Collaboration

Hi Friends! How are you doing?
Sorry for the few days delay on my posting...
It's been a crazy week, i've been working a lot,
and some exciting things are in the works ;)
Yesterday, I was featured In the incredible Women's Wear Daily!
It was an extreme honor and the lovely Miss Patty Huntington wrote an amazing article.
If you haven't read it & want to, Click Here to check it out. :)

Also, yesterday in the mail, my Heutchy Collaboration shoes arrived!!!
Heutchy is an amazing men's shoe line.
A few months back, Heutchy asked me to collaborate on a fabric.
After throwing around a few ideas,
we decided that it could be interesting to make a fabric print out of a building top texture.
so i ended up painting the the image above.
Then is was digitally printed on leather.
I really like how the fabric and the shoes turned out. :)
Thank you, Lowe! The shoes are amazing!
Whatcha think?
I hope you like them! :)

The Man Behind Heutchy.

Howdy Folks, it's Friday!
Woot, woot!
So, so, so glad. Been working a lot.
Been dying to get painting again.
But on kinda a sad note.... i think my studio is offically full!
Like the Thom Yorke Painting is sitting on top of a chair.
Marie Claire cover is leaning a against the six foot layered picture....
hm... i guess i have one of two options;
first, maybe i can start doing Gallery shows
so it frees up more room to make more art to hang in here.....
or two, i can try to figure out how to hang art on the celling...
haha, but need to figure something out soon.

The painting i posted today is of one of my best friends brother-in-law Lowe Stellberger.
He has his own Brilliant Shoe Line called Heutchy,
which i was lucky enough to get to design a fabric for his Spring 09 Collection (which is coming soon).
Oh and the painting was my second oil painting.
i hope you like it. :)

P.S. i got the funniest fortune cookie yesterday. It said "3 months to this day, something great will happen to you".
I'm hoping it comes true... So folks, mark the calander, April 15, 2009. It's going to be a good day! hahahha
