Since I view his work as being completely separate from graffiti, I can appreciate some of it. But casek's right, he's not doing anything new or inspired or particularly difficult.

 

Didn't someone on 12 oz used to work for him? I know he went to RISD...I want to say Earl but I'm not 100% sure about that.

“As long time fans of Shepard’s art and having worked with him prior to the popularity and notoriety of his Obama ‘Hope’ artwork, we are very excited to offer collectors of sports memorabilia an art series that will bring to life Jordan’s accomplishments and further cement his legacy,“ said Chuck Donato, business manager of UDA, the Upper Deck Company’s memorabilia division. “Jordan is the sporting world’s ultimate icon and there isn’t a more relevant or iconic artist currently than Shepard, so this is an epic pairing of athlete and artist. We couldn’t be more thrilled.”
