ABOUT

BRILLIANCE is knowledge in action.

Each of us carries something unique — a piece of the brilliance given by the Creator of all things. No two people see, think, create, or experience life in exactly the same way.

If we are each a reflection of the Creator, then what makes us different is not an accident. It is something we are responsible for developing, expressing, and sharing.

Your brilliance is your piece of a much larger puzzle. Something only you can contribute to the story of existence.

LIMITED is the nature of physical existence.

Everything we experience has a beginning, an end, and a finite amount of time between the two. Our bodies are limited. Our time is limited. That limitation is part of what gives life meaning — knowing something will not last forever gives us a reason to value it while it is here.

What is endlessly available is easy to overlook. Limitation creates intention, attention, and appreciation.

Every piece is numbered because it belongs to a particular moment in time — made by me, during this chapter, never to be repeated in the same way twice.

Each story becomes a piece of history left behind, so someone else might recognize their own brilliance within it.

One is why we are here. The other is why what we do here matters.

I put the work on garments so it can move.

You shouldn't have to come to the LA Art Show, or an exhibit on the west coast, or wherever I happen to be that month. A canvas hangs in one room. A shirt walks through the world.

If the work resonates with you, you can own it and put it into your life. That's the whole idea.

Everything here is made by one person. I draw it, I design it, I write and produce the music that goes with it, and I press the garments by hand in the studio, one at a time.

Some pieces take close to an hour at the press — four placements, aligned and pressed separately, a cutting pattern drawn for each size so the image sits correctly on every body. No fulfillment house has ever touched one of these garments.

Every piece arrives numbered, with a certificate naming its place in the edition. Most carry original poster art. Some carry an original song, written in harmony with the design.

Nothing is ever restocked.

Alongside the apparel there's The Other Side of Paradise — an ongoing body of original story, illustration, music, and animation. It's where most of these pieces come from.

If a shirt made you curious about the world behind it, that's the world.
