MERCH

NOBODY CARES

Two of my favorite artists, mentors and friends were kind enough to do an original Koop Art sticker in their amazing styles. Please do the math on these two gentlemen.

We met in art school and with our added love of hip hop we became fast friends. A hip hop historian like no other, he had mixtapes, stories and unreleased albums that spanned the corners of the genre. Mind blowing really. He was always producing new garments and stickers. I loved seeing the newest generations he would bring in to show us, almost daily it seemed. Koop is a talented artist, no question, but what sets him apart in his art is his love for the subject matter and how prolific he is. Constantly producing work, there is never a shortage of new ideas and concepts. An artist, historian and above all else, one of the greatest cats to walk the earth. Always team without hesitation. Koop is one in a million.

Koop and I met a couple of years ago while I was working on a creative project in Virginia. He has deep roots in the hip hop music scene and it comes across in his style of art. I was happy to work on this one of a kind sticker for my man Koop.

Good Times


Jimmy Walker playing James Evans, Jr. on the show Good Times was a huge part of my childhood. JJ's artwork provided by the legendary Ernie Barnes shaped me and continues to inspire so many, including myself, to this day. Shout out to Jon W. and the Bowie Bay Sox for allowing me to share my art and a few moments with Mr. Walker. I also want to thank Mr. Barnes' assistant at the time in 2001 for having him personalize my now priceless copy of From Pads To Palette.

8x10


The Era of the 8x10 Glossy Press Photo was a great time - seeing the Artist, collecting them and of course, getting them signed. 

This is the first of two. The other is for a very special upcoming project.

These are very limited.
