Hello, friends-
some of you may've missed that i'm the CREATOR / OWNER in an range of projects that originatined with my grand-Aunt Phyllis Benson's audio-recorded life-story; i'm quite near its completion-fully transcribed and annotated-IN her voice. if this interests you begin HERE:
there's a youtube channel-this i've been at since November 27th, 2022 so coming up on 6 months... i have 1,800 subscribers and should be officially monetized by 2024.
Moreover, studies on Peters And Trout "TEMPLE of FASHiON" in
LANCASTER, OHiO.
LASTLY, I own a POP-Up store the TEMPLE of TiCKLE-BriTCHES.
THE STORE SPECIALTIES will be as follows!
locally-inspired hoodies: restaurants, hotspots, ceremonies
locally-inspired t-shirts, tanks and socks
*(often they will complement the hoodie of the same collection), but also be it's own entity
the COLLECTiON won't be "just more of the same"
clever combinations of themes and motifs: the Main Street Bridge or Downtown Findlay, for instance, oh, or the schools...
…..or
...in a way more fulfilling and meaningful approach, WHILE studying FINDLAY's HISTORY, I've collected, oh i dunno, there are 37,000 photos in my collection, though many are copies and copies of copies working towards the perfect "Postcard" quality image.
that image, beautified by myself -or the team i envision, becomes a blueprint for the product that it yields.
you WILL have many questions that I WILL not have the answer to.. and i apologize for this in advance.
There will be 2 series of photos. Using Findlay's Housing Boom for this example. it is the DUO that create s a COLLECTION
1st set -- HOUSES of the GAS BOOM in FINDLAY, OHIO,
THE PHOTOS USED WILL ALWAYS include a good number of INTERIOR SHOTS of these "landmarks"
AND then
2nd set-- using the interior shots of the first set-modern apparel ranging from well-conceived remixes of classics, designed by myself.
The wallpaper and spiral banisters ARE MAIN targets, really, though, they're cues which nod my choice of color, texture and vibe.
all is in the store and on the youtube channel.
enjoy, friends. Kevin
i'm on all the others too, [TikToK, Twitter, Piinterest] try a variation of "Temple of Tickle Britches"... and you'll find me...as i've left a trail...
i still have my full time job at DHL-Campbell's where i've been for nearly 5 years
piece and peace
