Thomas Campbell printed scarf for The Standard Hotel
Thomas never simply signs his name to his pieces. Here he's "t.muckluck"
Thomas Campbell is legendary for his skate and surf related paintings, photography and filmmaking. So several years ago when I asked Thomas to paint a fashion image for me I was so nervous and didn't know if he'd think I was crazy or not. Luckily for me he obliged and the wonderful piece is mounted and framed in my house today and I feel so lucky every time I see it. Thomas is so talented that when he sent me a package once I couldn't bear to throw away the envelope. He had creatively (and appropriately) stamped it with Andy Warhol and Duke Kahanamoku stamps–it was so cool looking I had to frame this as well. So it's fun for me to see that he's been bitten by the fashion bug again but this time it's courtesy of The Standard hotel. The Standard commissioned three artists representing LA (Campbell), NY (RoStarr), and Miami (Jose Parla) to design art to be printed on a limited edition run of silk-cashmere scarves. All three designs are really cool, but honestly favorite is Thomas' red and pink print he chose for his scarf the best. How can I not? It's representing California!:)
