painting on TOMs shoes

TOMs asked us to paint on their shoes at the Haight Street Shoe Biz a couple of Saturdays ago. Why we did it: for every purchased pair of shoes, they donate a pair to a child in need.

here are the results!

mission street merch

we painted on some vintage chinese postcards for our friends and creators of Mission Street Food, a thursdays & saturdays dinner event at Lung Shan Restaurant @ 2234 mission street (san francisco). we stopped by after our art show late last saturday night and stayed for dinner. the food was insanely good, we didn't think we could afford food like this. but MSF is generous with its reasonable prices and donations to local charities. we highly recommend it!
