Ivan Lopez has a Kickstarter project; Colorful Power Animals 2014 Collection! Please support him!



Ivan has been honing his style and has a very beautiful vision and product. Please support our alum and ID grad for this ambitious project. The video is really wonderful - so honest and sincere, just like his work. Check out the Vimeo piece he did - paint poetry is a beautiful concept and very well executed.

From his page:
"I LOVE TO PAINT! For the past five years I have focused on mastering the craft of hand painted apparel, including hoodies, dresses, T-shirts and lions, oh my! I have developed a technique in creating a great looking piece with original artwork & also a garments that can withstand the brutal washer and dryer. 

Each piece is one of a kind and made to order. No two garments are identical and each is carefully planed out with attention to size and color selection. Every piece will be painted on an American Apparel sweatshop-free blank. In order to make this 2014 collection possible, each garment is developed with an underlining image that is drawn in by hand. These are long lasting works of art that you can wear for life. "
Please support Ivan and send this link to those you know! He can use our support! click the image above or link below to get to his support page! Congrats Ivan!
