This is another one of my decade homie's. We basically grew up together and hung around the same folks in Denver. This cat daddy is one Cool Cat like Heathcliff. The owner of Owl & Orchid Tattoo, (3932 Federal Blvd, Denver, CO 80211) . He's sick with the paint, the graphic design, and the tat2's. He's a huge move maker in the graffiti world, as he is also apart of the Colorado Crush crew, he creates all their marketing and promotional materials and also organizes artists for the event. His letter style is abstract and complex, very unique and one of a kind. With so much styles to blow your mind, he can catch him or the boy's outside painting the Owl&Orchid Wall, during the spring/summer time. Much Love to The whole Rish Posse!! SD12

-EMIT-DF-RTD-Guerilla Garden-

This dude is a Graffiti OG, been bombing the country with his classic super clean East Coast styles since the 90's. Reppin The D.F. crew. I've always admired this cat's work. I remember when I first saw his work in graff mags in 94 and his IMOK tags on the block with TUKE coming up in Denver. From Connecticut, Boston, New York, you can see his Large scale of work. He moved to Denver in 1995 and is still a leader in graphic design and graffiti. Emit has painted at many U.S. Graffiti events, from Skribble Jam to Colorado Crush! Emit always brings Da Funk!

-FIENZ-LOF-NC-TKRS-DC SPINMASTERS-

This is the older brother of Hip-Hop in Denver to a lot of US, including myself. A True B-Boy in all the essence, from hittin the floor with footwork, burns, uproks, to knowledge of records and breaks, to his incredible rapping skills (which he only does when he's making torillas, lol jk) and to the spray paint can. Big Brother Fienz, has taught and inspired a whole generation of Colorado Hip-Hoppa's and he is currently molding the tradition in his son, Baby Fienz. He has a traditional B-Boy graff stayle. His B-Boy character was always his patten character. It's butta, and so classic, and oh so Fienz! My big bro, got the torch passed down from his OG's to teach US the rules and codes of being in a crew. One of the founder's of The Mighty Lordz of Finesse crew, I'm blessed that this dude is on my team! Always got love for my brother OG- Fienz!
