“With our efforts as a brand to continue to provide quality product, were taking a different approach in releasing new items. To slowly introduce our new design aesthetic, were going to be dropping 2 new designs bi-monthly which will be available exclusively on our online shop. Expect to see an abundance of collaboration projects with fellow brand names during this campaign as well. Although the norm is to release a full line of designs each season this is simply something different we are attempting to try where at the same time we can provide more quality control and re-connect with all of you supporters. This campaign will be in effect for most of 2010, up until we will then introduce a full season of thought provoking designs and quality and thought after cut & sew pieces. With the birth of our own art gallery, new office, we are blessed and humbled to still be around to continue to do what we love. Again we thank all of our supporters for sticking by us and we promise to bring new concepts to the table. Lets break bread.”

After a long hiatus, we at the EK5OBITION got one of the original members back. Welcome back Dennis! (don’t mind pudge in the background, he’s just excited about his new phone.)

He’s been in Alaska for northern lights, snow globes, and to help catch dreams… with dream-catchers, oh yea and also to scout out moose knuckles. Yes, you read the previous line correctly, moose knuckles or Alaska, I don’t know which you find more shocking. But we’re all glad to see him back in Cali and we officially went from 6 to midnight.

The main reason why we closed the site was to bring up the online store, but we also needed to work out a lot of the kinds within the website and us as a group. But yes, it will be up sooner than you expect.

See this is proof. But honestly, the product shots weren’t just for our online store, but something bigger than anything we expected. Then again that is something for another post.

Jonas Lynch was born in Wheatridge, Colorado on June 11, 1980.  Shortly after, Jonas moved to Northwest Iowa where he was raised until 1998.  When he was 18, Jonas moved to Long Beach California to attend school for graphic design.

It was when Jonas was 9 years old that he found his love with art.  He started by recreating the logos of sports teams and other subjects that evolved around professional sports.  Jonas only drew pictures of sports images for years following.

Jonas was introduced to Salvador Dali and Hieronymus Bosch at age 16, which tore him away from drawing the sports images.  One year later Jonas graduated high school from LeMars Community High School.  Three months later, Jonas moved to Long Beach California in 1998.  He moved to California to learn graphic design at Brooks College.  After graduating in May, 2000, Jonas designed apparel for many NCAA universities and all four branches of the military.  This lasted for 5 years, when he decided to try something different.  Within this 5 years, Jonas started to be an active artist by way of live painting.  He took multiple trips to San Diego to live paint during performances by Al Howard & the K23 Orchestra.  This move to face his nervous tendencies and live paint re-sparked his love of art.  This phase of his art lasted maybe 4 years before he found his signature.
