Brian Davis (Wooden Sleepers) - Classic American Style

Brian Davis of Wooden Sleepers  is our first quarantine-era guest  . Wooden Sleepers is Brian’s vintage menswear store/brand/story out of red hook brooklyn (and on the web) . Brian has created an international community around the passion for quality, authentic, classic American apparel, his enthusiasm for the field creating a kind of magnetic pull to the idea of nuanced personal style . His online shop is open for business! (wooden-sleepers.com . Pleasure to have you on the show, Brian! Thanks all for lisenting . Also - you’ll notice cf watkins‘s drawing skills have been impacted during isolation . just kidding. to accompany the uncut quarantine podcast format, she has adjusted the illustration format. a visual parallel that I think does justice (and more) to the trippy time we’re in . each portrait will be done as a “blind contour” - a drawing exercise prohibiting the drawer from i) looking at the page and ii) lifting the utensil from the page (until the drawing is complete) (you might try it yourself for fun) . woo!
