SooOOoooooo EXCITED!!! The TOOFLY X UPPER PLAYGROUND Capsule Collection has finally been released.  The t-shirts look great! I can’t wait to rock em’. Check out the close ups of the illustrations below. I was on some new zone when I created these pieces a year ago. Time did not exist. All I wanted to do was express a energy flow that was coming from some amazing place you can’t even see but just feel.  Yeah…it’s some energy quantum physics shit. Consciousness and Pink Floyd are a great mix for an afternoon of art & design:) ENJOY!

BRAVE SOULS ILLUMINATE by Toofly. An Upper Playground X Toofly Collaboration.

What’s LOVE got to do with it? EVERYTHING! back by popular demand, and inspired by one of the most powerful messages of our lives. I decided to bring back this slick and sharp LOVE HEART necklace in a fire engine red, and classic black. Originally released on Valentine’s Day last year in both sterling silver, and 14K gold. They sold out! Now you can rock this classic piece at a fraction of the price. Laser cut acrylic with an 18″ sterling silver chain. Are you ready to spread the LOVE? Each of us can help, and with every love heart sold $1 will be donated to www.yele.org to help Haiti families rebuild;)

They’re here!!! My very own pocket sketchbooks;) I love stationary, lately I’ve been geekn’ it out on paper goods. The feel of printer matter especially when it’s small is hard to resist. This year I decided to get to the heart of my work, and make something that means a lot, but does not cost a lot. With so much of the day distracted from our  thoughts and feelings it’s important to get back to basics and pour it all out on a blank page. Sketch, write, or catch a tag for someone you love. It’s a lot more special when you “personalize” it + it’s 100% eco-friendly baby! just in time for the holidays. ENJOY!!!

Toofly pocket size sketchbooks. 32 pages of high quality, eco-friendly 100% recycled paper with one of her favorite girl mark illustrations. Printed with black soy ink on chipboard, this 3.5″ W X 5″ H sketchbook has saddle-stitch binding, and rounded corners. Easy to slip in and out of your pocket when you feel the urge to sketch, write, or catch a tag! Limited Edition of 50. Signed and numbered by Toofly

$12.00 available exclusively at: www.tooflynyc.com/shop
