he was already famous here in NYC for his graffiti, which became guerrilla advertising for his skateboard & clothing line. if you’ve ever been to NYC or seen images of the city with OBEY graffiti, that’s him.

@blogdiva I'd heard of him, but didn't know he was also behind the "obey" art. Thanks for the info!
