Draplin on Read Between the Leading Podcast

If you're not familiar with Draplin Design Co. here in Portland, OR, take a sec to poke through the work (we're sure you'll recognize it). Read Between the Leading (a super cool podcast put together by Aaron Heth and Matt McInerney) recently interviewed Aaron Draplin to talk about hard work, respect, obsession, and his latest effort, "Wilderness." He's definitely a dude we'd love to clank a few beers with. Enjoy the interview here.

I got a really exciting email this weekend from Wanderlust gallery in Northampton,UK asking me to be part of a group show. I am honored to have one of my Bali pieces in Wanderlust 333. The show has 33 different international artist and looks to be pretty sickle. You'll also be able to purchase the prints online so those of you like me that aren't anywhere near Northampton,UK can buy the stuff online.

Who Ordered Pancakes???

Sorry for the lack of posts lately! We have been super busy finishing up the &1 Zine which is coming out to be about 36 pages of unfiltered gnar. More posts soon. Who ordered pancakes??

&1 Everyday Shenanigans

Sorry it's been so long sine we posted anything. We both have been super busy at work and working on our zine/show. It's shaping up really nice and we are really excited to show everyone the work.

A little update on the show, we are planning on screen printing 10 pieces from the zine into posters. We are teaming up with Keegan Meegan to print the posters. They are gracious enough to help us out and we couldn't be more excited. The piece above is one of the prints from the show and what looks brown will be a sparkly gold.

Keep checking back we'll be posting alot more updates as it gets closer to the show. Have a great day.
