I couldn't wait to properly show you all what i've been working on. Don't forget the online store will officially open Monday, December 6th. Winter has never felt this good!

Looking at cultures around the world it seems that the owl has thoroughly confused man since the beginning. Some cultures see the owl as a bringer of death and bad omen, and some see the creature as a bearer of wisdom and spirituality. This has prompted my interpretation of the owl as a symbol of balance and that of an overall messenger. Since TALL TALE is a effort to bring the Greatest Story Never Told(GSNT) to light in modern mediums, the brand has taken on the form of a messenger itself. So what better character to represent it. Not to mention that Thoth did his thing when he gave us this beautiful glyph.

THE ENDI Thank You All

The great thing about a good story is that it must end. Since the inception of TALL TALE there has been an overwhelming amount of love and support, and I thank every last one of you. TALL TALE for the past year has been my life(literally), I have spent countless hours, tons of sacrifices, and an infinite amount for energy to make sure that the vision for TALL TALE was put out according to the "great will" of things. So when things go awry and relationships take an ill turn I tend to take it very personally. Remember this is my life, I love design, concepts and creating in general, but even bigger than that the message that I made it my point to convey is a big part of me. Remember that this wasnt just t-shirts TALL TALE was a belief that paradise is out there and it doesn't fall in your lap you must chase it. So with this last release I am positive that I am leaving you all on a good note. Someone, somewhere in this time or the next has been motivated by this experience, and for that I am happy.

THANK YOU ALL

ENJOY THE RAY always

As human beings we have knowledge and control over this incredible thing we call balance. Unfortunately in this world there is no such thing as a constant state of balance, all we know and understand is its push and pull. Just as one side(good) gets ahead the opposing force(evil) knocks it right back down and even sometimes advances. As a result we often have a lifetime's worth of "bad experiences." But even in those times of advanced evil we can always rest easy knowing that with every PUSH there is a PULL.
