New Leathers...

Ok, at SoHo we pride ourselves on style, and pushing the limits of civilized taste.  So it was no surprise when I came across a leather vest for super cheap that I had to get it, and being the kind of guy I am I just couldn't leave shit alone.  So one of the guys here at SoHo Dusty Ohlman who has been a low brow artist his whole life jumped at the chance to get back to his roots and do a back piece for me.  He had cut his teeth as an artist back in the 80's doing blue jean jackets for $5 a pop...with the cash he bought his first car...well the piece I had him do was a tribute to the bike group I belong to, Louisville Vintage Motoworks and to SoHo...so I designed the piece and Dusty painted it...I'm kind off stuck on the idea of a Fender sunburst motif right now so I had him do the piece in that kind of theme...I think it turned out great...
