DAVID FLORES COLLECTIVE

About David Flores

David Flores is well known within the urban arts community for his self proclaimed stained glass style and he is one of the most prolific break out artists in 2008.

 
 

















A prominent figure in the skateboarding world, David has been involved with and shaped the image of so many brands it can be hard to keep track of. Find a group of skateboarders anywhere in the world; chances are that at least one of them is skating a deck designed by David or rocking a pair of shoes inspired by his art.

(DF x KAWS)



























In 2007 he spent time working with Kid Robot, XLarge, BLOC28, Oakley DC Shoes and other principal brands in the urban realm. Most recently he teamed up with Medicom and Disney to create a Limited Mickey Mouse vinyl toy with his classic style. His distinct style has been applied to nearly all of the top urban vinyl toy characters from Japan to the United States.


David Flores has consistently proved to be an artist capable of crossing all boundaries and limitations while still being able to produce extremely attractive and unique work.






















He has been painting fine art the past 10+ years, it has been incredibly difficult for people to get a hold of his work as he sells pieces as soon as they are completed. The first of the print series features the iconic figures Andy Warhol, Linda Evangelista, and Wu-tang Clan member O.D.B. All of David products available in Japan sell out in no time.

David Flores Collective apparels and DAVID FLORES prints are now available at good selective stores in Asia.

GONG XI FA CHAI - Year of the TIGER



















If you literally translate "Gong Xi Fa Chai", it would mean "wishing you enlarge your wealth."

Gong Xi: means wishing/blessing

Fa: means enlarge(ment)

Chai: means wealth

So a literal translation is that you wish someone will become very rich, but the phrase is generally used as Happy New Year.
Kiong Hee Huat Cai
Gong Xi Fa Chai
Kong Hei Fat Choi
Happy Chinese New Year
Selamat Tahun Bari Cina..etc, etc...

And yea..lets hope that he's coming back into the game sooner coz Golf  is never the same without this Tiger..






















Gong Xi Fa Chai everyone!

The Last AirBender - The MOVIE


The Last Airbender is the big money adaptation of the first season of the TV cartoon series Avatar, which featured an odd but unique mix of fantasy and steampunk (think The Court of the Air, with more of a quest riff going on).


Shymalan seems to understand that cool martial arts should be shot with a wider angle and not with painful close-ups.


Thank you M Shymalan!

INTRO :

Air, Water, Earth, Fire.

Airbender fans will do backflips to see images of the iceberg, achieving Avatar State, waterbending, earthbending and firebending, and of the Fire Nation Navy in battle.  (Sharp eyes might even catch a glimpse of Gran Gran!) Newcomers will groove on seeing a kick-ass little kid (Aang) defeating his foes with just a staff and air.


Four nations tied by destiny when the Fire Nation launches a brutal war against the others. A century has passed with no hope in sight to change the path of this destruction. Caught between combat and courage, Aang (Noah Ringer) discovers he is the lone Avatar with the power to manipulate all four elements. Aang teams with Katara (Nicola Peltz), a Waterbender, and her brother, Sokka (Jackson Rathbone), to restore balance to their war-torn world.

MLAB is proud to be the official apparel licensee for The Last Airbender.
