Ogi
During my travels through lovely San Francisco, I saw lots of amazing and wonderful stuff. At just about every other store without initially realizing who it was each time, I would notice the work of Ogi over and over again, like love at first sight on repeat. Finally on my last day, it happened once more and I asked one of the store clerks, "Who's Ogi?"— He's just graduated from a design art school in San Francisco and has established himself as a local artist. However, he's been unable to obtain a work visa to stay here and is leaving at the end of the month for Japan. His work is amazing and fresh, gritty but cute. I would have more of his stuff if my grass were a bit greener. Show some love and check him out.
