TAFKAP

TAFKAP, this isn't about Prince no this is The Artist Formerly Known As Preppy. Mr. Castleberry painted his GANT by Michael Bastian Chino over a span of 2 weeks with oil paint. The first layer of greens and blues was applied with brusher and a knife and allowed to dry for one week. Then, a top layer of with was applied in the same fashion, as he explains on his blog The Unabashedly Prep.

CHAD GOES TO BRIGHTON, U.K.

I just finish packing for my trip to Brighton, UK. I will hop on the ferry tomorrow morning at Dunkirk, which brings me in 2 hours to Dover, then the trip continues via the coast of South East England to Brighton. This will be my home for 3 days. On Tuesday I'm going prop hunting at the Ardingly Fair. I'm so curious what I will bring back home......
