“With my clothing brand (STRIPED™)-for instance-I upcycle and repurpose all of the clothes so nothing goes to waste. There’s a lot of landfill out there and, most times, brands will overproduce product and waste resources that end up being thrown away and labeled as garbage. At STRIPED™, we take fabrics and “waste” from thrift stores or other local brands and completely flip them; we STRIPE-IFY them.” - dylAn
Gratitude for the Art of Summer 2026
I believe it’s important for us humans to practice gratitude. (There’s actually a bunch of research that shows practicing gratitude is super good for you, but we aren’t here to look at studies.) Today I want to practice gratitude for all the incredible artworks that have been produced and released this summer.

“I think, from an artist standpoint, it’s an unconscious advantage to lead with your heart. Owning your emotions goes hand in hand with transitioning them into raw, authentic art.”
