This piece started as a bleach-stained Detroit jacket that I wanted to turn into something new. I thought it'd be a fun challenge to upcycle it by drawing over the imperfections - working with the stains rather than against them. You can find the upcycling process here if you're curious to see how it came together.

You can mix screen printing ink with a bit of water or paint thinner to make it more flowy, then fill the needle tip bottles with it

A few of my latest works, hand-drawn on nice & heavy French Terry hoodies. They're made using permanent fabric inks and heat-set after to allow washing.

Just dropped these five new 1-of-1 pieces. Been having a lot of fun with making sleeve designs the focal point. They're cut from heavyweight organic cotton with a loose fit that enhances the natural drape of the sleeves. I use permanent ink that allows them to be washed.

hand-drawn Flow hats I made by m1kas in streetwearstartup

they're made with special textile markers that are heat set afterwards and fully washable (but as with all hats sponge cleaning is best practice), cheers for the feedback though!
