UK Artist James Jarvis has been out in Tokyo hosting what we hope is the first of many Amos Miniature Workshops and despite the heavy Tokyo rain there was a splendid turnout where visitors could buy James's artwork and get in on the act and be a part of James art by inking the first Japanese Wisdom of Caleb cartoons. More info + pics after the jump.
Hosted at One Gram in Tokyo this little workshop was a great opportunity to meet James and collaborate with Amos and check out their latest wares in the form of Caleb. One Gram being the perfect location for such a figure who adorns tees paying homage to streetwear brands like WTAPS, Bape & Supreme.
Also joining James and long time collaborator Russell were two 4ft Caleb figures who are just crying out for some t-shirt designs to adorn their robust figure! One of these would look superb in my house if Russell happens to be reading this ;)
Check out more pictures here on the Amos blog and the final cartoons can be seen here on the Wisdom of Caleb blog.
