[font=Verdana]I’m a huge admirer of VonDutch… before he was high fashion… Von Dutch was born a poor man, lived a poor man… and died a poor man… and he was happy… he thought money was annoying… it got in the way… even though he was successfull as a painter… all he wanted to do was work on motercycles…

When he was a kid… he used to pinstripe and paint on everything… one of his most famous creations was the Flying eyeball… borrowed from middle eastern Kulture… the eyeball symbolized a soul after life that can travel and look down on the world…

i didn’t make the eyeball… but i vectorized it… and soon to be tattoed B/W on my shoulder…

Just wanted to let you guys in on VonDutch a bit more than fashion.

p.s… Von Dutch’s real name was [/font][font=Verdana]Kenny Howard, and in the 70’s… started calling himself [/font][font=Arial]J.L. Bachs… which was short for Joe Lunch Box
