Edgewater Art Festival with Fellow Local Brand, Evol Chicago!!!

Join me in revisiting THE last festival of the season, Edgewater Art Festival! This was my very first festival a couple of years ago, and now I revisit it three years later. This year I'm mixing it up, and working with a good entrepreneur friend of mine who has an awesome clothing and accessory line based on Chicago House Music: EVOL Chicago, (LOVE spelled backwards, and also referring to the EVOLution of love through culture and music).

I have partnered with the company's founder Misha in the past for collaborations of our brands. Below you will see some captures from us working together. This time, though, we're both bringing our individual best, together to YOU! Be sure to stop by to find some of the most unique Chicago merchandise out there! From Chicago shirts, hats, pins, and scarves to art printed on anything and everything you can imagine! Introducing multiple products  before summer is over, don't miss it!

West Fest Recap

West Fest 2016, Chicago 

The three-day festival was filled with people from all walks of life, as West Town sits in the middle of the West Side, drawing people from Logan Square, to Humbolt Park, Wicker Park,  Bucktown, River West, University City / Little Italy and beyond! Despite the occasional heat wave on Friday, the weather was perfect for the weekend to be filled with an eclectic mix music, vendors, and people... (and dogs... and pigs!). One of my favorite aspects of West Fest was the diversity, not only of the people and DJ's, but also the mini-areas within the fest itself. The kid zone was complete with blow up castles, mini trains and donkey rides, but even better yet, A PET ZONE that featured a charity dog wash for all the hot pooches (see pictures below!) and a great food truck circle area! My favorite was Jerk Grill (their jerk rubbed chicken in particular). No, not "you're a jerk" type of jerk, mouthwatering Jamaican spices kind of Jerk!  Also a special thank you to Andrea from Little Shoe Films for the recap video!

 

Enough talk, See West fest in action!

Festival Season 2016!

So far so good

in the world of summertime festivals in Chicago! Midsommar Fest was a great success! Besides a little bit of intense heat, and spurts of some strong wind, MIdsommar fest was as beautiful and eccentric as ever! I have to give great thanks to my team which included Trung Lu, Will Anderson,  Patrick Fenko, Gabriel Sutton, Jeff Levitan, and some of my family members. See some pictures of the event below!

But before you do...

 

Check out this year's West Fest! From Friday until Sunday I will be displaying my artwork in West Town on Chicago Ave. between Damen and Wood! West fest is one of my favorite festivals, so do yourself favor and check out this amazing collection of artists, DJs, chefs and performers!
