    Quotes:

    "Aurieuch!" - Jacob, Julian, And Travis, followed by everyone that has heard it since, including Jandro's third grade class

    "Anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job." -Douglas Adams

    "Art is a worthy pursuit but I think 'design' is an even higher form of creativity. Design 'fuses' art and science, or art and problem solving, or art and usefulness, sometimes all the above in the same project." -Tinker

    "You say love is a hell you cannot bare. And I say gimme mine back and then go there, for all I care." - One of many by Fiona Apple

    "That Gunthrie was a tool. This land is your land, this land is my land . . . that's Socialism, plain and simple!" - Steven Colbert

    "Yep! You heard right! 2-1 Netherlands! In 11! Tulips for everyone!" - Sportscenter after Holland upset the Dominican Republic in the World Baseball tourney

    "One of the worst things you can do as an actor, I think, is to forget your lines, and then get so flustered you start stabbing the other actors." and "I bet a funny thing about driving a car off a cliff is, while you're in midair, you still hit those brakes. Hey, better try the emergency brake." - Jack Handey

    "I think the problem most designers have is the desire to do something unique. They want to get their unique ideas out there, but they want to force it on their audiences. I have my unique ideas, too, but I understand that you have to look at what is the current trend and use it as an avenue for accessing your audience in order to move them along to your unique ideas. Total originality will alienate your audience, as they don't understand your vision and they're simply trying to buy what looks cool. That is, what's in style. That is, what's trendy." - me, in an interview with SeaNYC that got me a freelance job doing shirt design

    "I guess that's the curse of replicating the Pop scene, eh? You've got to do what the Pop artists did, and everyone knows Andy Warhol got famous for swagger-jacking." - Jacob Patterson, in an interview for paintorthread.com

    "Creativity is not necessarily absolute originality, but rather bridging those gaps to your original ideas." - Professor Upton of UCLA, on the idea that to be creative you must still have a means to access your original ideas

    "I demand respect, because I deserve none." - me, in a revelation I had about a certain type of people while I was brushing my teeth (to be developed into an idea for art)

    "This isn't the BCS, ya know? People don't get to vote for who they wanna play. We're not in that ridiculous system, this is real sports here, where you get to decide it on the court." - Stan Van Gundy, coach of the Magic, on the media's desire to see the Cavaliers (the Magic's Eastern Conference Championships opponents) play the Lakers in the next round

    "Do a great job of leading, and - when necessary - use words." - Mark Jackson

    AND MY FAVORITE QUOTE OF ALL TIME!: "I'm keeping an eye on your projects, it's great, you're so young and already working hard, I think you'll end up far beyond your expectations :)" - Mijn Schatje, speaking about ME! The real Mijn Schatje!

About me:

FIRST AND FOREMOST

Before messaging me make sure I can respond. If this means sending me a friend request because you only accept messages from friends and I can't request you without an email or last name, please do. It's frustrating when I write a long response only to find out that I can't send it. Thank you and check the bottom for contacts!




This is a design I made with South Sacramentan artist Justin Galindo. It represents whatever you feel when you see it, just take an extra second to decode its visual message. Message me about purchasing one at $15. I also have a few other shirts for sale.








Hi :c)

Most of you probably know me from YouTube, and if you're coming here because of that I thank you for taking the extra second to check out my work. I do all sorts of artwork, not just custom clothing, so PLEASE contact me for any creative project you have. I'd love to do it.

So,

I say AURIEUCH! Message me about pronunciation.

Recklessly

I have a pretty involved channel on YouTube as well, feel free to check me out there - WiggaTriggaTV

You can contact me via -

I'd love to explain any art you have questions about, or give advice on things like custom shoes, so contact me for these things as well.



Now I should probably explain the custom shoe game a little bit, and how it works.

Unless I have a pair already for sale and you simply wish to purchase it, the process will typically go like this:

The customer will contact either with an idea or the desire for me to sell one of my own to them. We will talk over the idea via email, instant message, or telephone conversation, and once finished I will create a photoshop preview of the pair. I usually charge $20 for this design, which is deducted from the final price.

After adjusting the image to the client's particular desires, I will charge a paypal account or request a check or money order be sent to my home address (which adds an extra week to the overall process), and then I purchase the shoes. You can also send the shoes to me if you would like, but I prefer the former.

I then prep the shoes, which involves stripping the factory finish from the shoes, preparing them to bond with the leather paint, and allowing for a paint job which will never come off, and can be worn just as any pair of shoes you could buy in a store.

After painting them (and typically creating a video to post to my YouTube channel), I will put a finisher on them to waterproof them. So you can feel safe wearing them out, and not just putting them up on the wall.

SOLE JUNKIE lists his average at $400 per job. Most would agree that my work is on par with his, but my average falls quite a bit lower than his (I also include shipping and base shoe value in my totals). Email me for specifics. Keep in mind that the more the detail, the higher the price. Canvas material shoes (i.e. Converses, Vans) are much cheaper as well. Average time from payment to receiving of shoes is 3-7 weeks depending on detail, keep that in mind when considering a purchase.

I also do large discounts for buying multiple pairs, or if one can offer other services like discounts on products I may find useful or large promotion deals.

Thank you very much and email me with any more questions!

Current in-depth projects (in no particular order):

Kojima/Shinkawa Kicks series
From Russia with Love Dunks
Bioshock Dunks
impending God of War kicks series
Urban Olympics
Assorted stencil work with Kaleb Higgins


Who I'd like to meet:

The video game god: Hideo Kojima *MET*
The sports god: Michael Jordan
The music god: Michael Jackson *PASSED ON *
The street art god: Banksy
The god of gods: God


About to cross one of those off of the list! Hopefully not the last :c|

EDIT 27 June 09: I have crossed two of these off of the list. One because I met him, the other because he has passed on to a better place. I pray that once I meet the god of gods I can meet the god of music. RIP MJ.

    So I'll be honest, your talent is freakish. You make me feel mediocre. Keep up the art stuff its amurzing. The "from Russia with Love" shoes are bond-tastic. I'm sure the ol' chap himself would have sported a pair.
