Shawnimals - 'I Love Computers'

My passion for designing started in 2002 as a hobby by setting up individual design projects creating my own products and street art related designs for t-shirts, stickers, buttons, and handmade designer toys which showed up in different (online) shops, websites, exhibitions, books and magazines worldwide. Over the years a personal interpretation about visual art & design gradually developed into Bytedust. I decided to start an one-man business in December 2006. Today Bytedust is a small creative media lab from Bilthoven (The Netherlands) creating vector and graphic designs, web designs, character designs, ideas and concepts for companies and organizations. OhNo!Doom is a Chicago artist collective made up of designers, illustrators and plush artists (who all work creative jobs during the week). The group operates an art gallery-shop in Bucktown, that showcases it’s members work as well as other artists from around the world and is home to ON!D's designer toy and clothing line. This space also does triple duty as the collective’s design studio headquarters. The OhNo!Doom Collective is: Oscar Alatorre, Max Bare, Joseph Call, Lana Crooks, Jordan Owen and Andrew Thompson. Shawnimals and Squibbles Ink have teamed up with OhNo!Doom in Chicago on this custom toy show with Plushform. Plushform is an, open-ended blank plush platform toy (think Kidrobot’s Munny, but softer...). Artists from around the world were invited to participate, each with a unique style that will not only show off the amazing talents of each artist, but also the versatility of the Plushform as a blank toy medium.
