KAWS

Some day I should probably write about KAWS. Above some jeans he just did for Levi’s. Below, some shoes with VisVim. Both, I believe, are for his Tokyo store, Original Fake.

He’s a very productive young man, and a talented artist — I mean his actual paintings and prints, aside from the products.

Not that I think there’s anything wrong with his products. I bought a KAWS pillow myself.

I just mean that he’s found a way to strike that balance between art and commerce that’s more interesting than most. Or at least that’s what I think. Or … maybe I just like his style.
