Very excited about this project. Sev­eral months ago I was approached by Nike to design a psy­che­del­lic illus­tra­tion that would be used to wrap around a spe­cial lim­ited edi­tion set of Danny Kass Nike Zoom Force 1 snow­board­ing boots. Nike liked the design so much they expanded my design to include a Jacket, shirt, posters, and an ani­mated video.

I’m very happy with how it all turned out! It’s a thrill to see my draw­ings ani­mated. Hat’s off to all the tal­ented peo­ple who worked on the ani­ma­tion.
