Free Admission, my up-cycled denim line in studio and in print.

Huge thanks to Roll Up Magazine Issue #28 Volume 3 for printing this spread of my images in the studio.

We had a great team to pull this shoot together and without them, none of this would be possible.

This line is constructed of Levi’s I picked up from a thrift store in the Summer of 2022. 100 pairs for $1 each. I did embroider some and silk screened on others and when my hands got sore I started to pull them apart and figure out how to make other pieces of clothing out of them. I mined a heap of patterns from Pinterest, printed them, pieced them together and then started to cut and sew the denim. I broke many needles and stabbed myself many times with pins and when I was at a loss as to how to make something I had an idea for Samantha was there to help. I have so much gratitude for everyone who helped me bring this to life.

A collection of 18 outfits hit the runway on May 21, and it was a blast.

Alex in my designs.

One of the amazing things I get to do is work with people I love working with on a regular basis.

Alex and I connected a few years back and have been making magic together ever since,

For this shoot, I used my up-cycled designs and we shot in the studio.

The editorial was featured in Issue 28, Volume 16 of Selin magazine and it’s called Alex in Design.

My stickers made it to Europe!

A wonderful fan took a stack of my stickers to Europe on her vacation and put them everywhere.

Then they took photos, printed them and gave them to me. HOW COOL IS THAT?!

Thank you Marilyn, you are one of a kind.

‘Part of our ongoing collaboration with local artist Deanna Flinn. Her illustration of a classic boombox in blue ink looks amazing on these made in Canada – 50/50 Ring Spun Poly/Cotton mustard tees. 

Hand-screen printed and designed in Vancouver, Canada.’

Mural self promo video.

So I have been working on going big with my drawings for the past few years. I wanted to wrap up all of that work in one video, so I did.

I would love to know what you think. It took me a minute to collect all of the footage and again more minutes to cut it together.

It has been a wild ride and I am honestly grateful for the pause COVID gave me because that pause gave me a re-set that I needed and it gave me the opportunity to realize that I can go big with my work and it gave me a whole new community too.
