I was selected for the opportunity to make four flags for the @jocoahc and just finished them up! They will be viewable at the @jcprdparks Theater in the Park and Meadowbrook Park during the World Cup. Send me a selfie if you get to see them! | Each of the four flags were inspired by a native Kansas flower. The first is a cone flower, then golden rod, then aster, and finally a sunflower. They are made of recycled hot air balloon material and ripstop nylon. taken in Johnson County Parks & Recreation by @coco107

Earned? Trust? You?? Aight.

The brainchild of a collaboration between myself and the wonderful @kevinhopkinsart

So appreciative of @vulpes.bastille for the opportunity to show our work in a beautiful and well loved space

Also very appreciative of @kevinhopkinsart for being a rockstar artist and collaborator!

And big shoutout to @element.ten for the assistance with the neon lights. Y’all are awesome.
