On a path a Michelle Jones type situation

Buy Art, Support Obama

So my friend Mags will soon be leaving Louisville and moving back to her beloved New Orleans. While I’m super happy for her I’m bummed that in a few months I’ll have to pay shipping like everyone else when I want to buy her very cool art. My latest purchase? This great Obama shirt.

A couple nights ago B and I walked to dinner. She was wearing an Obama t-shirt, one from the campaign, and she was quite the conversation starter. We could barely go five feet without someone saying “I like your shirt” or “Cool shirt” or “Go Obama!” etc. I was a little envious. “I want an Obama shirt dammit, but a cooler one, a more artistic one.” In comes Mags. Not only is her shirt awesome but by purchasing it I’m supporting an independent artist and supporting the Obama campaign (Mags is donating part of the purchase price).

The big ass win in North Carolina plus the really good showing in Indiana has re-energized me toward the campaign and I’m going to send another small donation. I can’t freaking wait to stroll down Bardstown Road with this kick ass Obama shirt on. Did I mention that HRC’s Louisville campaign headquarters are on Bardstown Road?

Kids you too can be cool like this buy ordering the Obama stencil shirt from the art by mags etsy store. If you’re not in Louisville you’re almost guaranteed to be the only one in your town wearing one, which will of course make you even more awesome than you already are.

you are so sweet, michelle. thanks so much for the plug, and all your support since we first met.
soon i will have a nifty little obama gifty for you and any bike-geek friends you might have – obama bike spoke cards! a guy associated with the obama campaign out in california used my design to make 20,000 of them to distribute to bike shops and bike nerds everywhere, for free. i haven’t gotten my shipment yet, but when i do, i’ll let you know.
you can see some pics here on his flickr site: http://www.flickr.com/photos/a35mmlife/
for those who don’t know what a spoke card is, just google it. apparently, so far, the bike nerds are eating them up and really digging them. i’m psyched!

I’m happy to plug your work all I can. You know I love your stuff.
The bike spoke cards are cool. Your work has gone “viral” as the kids like to say. First at Coachella, now on posters and bike spokes. You’re going to take over the world in a minute.
