Seems the news has broken out so I'm gonna take the time to voice that yes, it's true that the Odd1s team was retired.

Now more than ever I'd like y'all to please support my coworkers ❤️❤️ This came as a shock & they deserve ALL the support.

Here's a thread to all their work 🔽

Feel free to reach out if you want any help!!!

Super lovely work

2025 is a write-off because the tariffs impacted the shop entirely 💀

Funny enough, I've been doing the opposite of u and trying to lean more into freelance since that money doesn't go back into expenses like merch does lmao

ok the studio sale is live!! birdfingers.storenvy.com

a variety of works dating between 2021-2026 available, some small, some big, all made with love, all made by hand. also some very significant works in here that i've made many print runs of in the past. examples below - thank you for ur support!

22/23 was such a strong year also for selling merch. I yearn for the earnings and projects of that year 🤘😔

Is the ocean too deep for fish as space is too big for stars?

Alt version which I also quite like :)
