Aaron Oblvn

Designing the inline/seasonal tees and headwear for Nike SB in the Nike Art Dept. I put together collections that carry on the overarching seasonal narrative, incorporating prints and seasonal colors. I hand draw and paint graphics as well as create computer generated artwork. My collections stem are consumer based and stem from inspiration and incites gathered over working on action based graphics for the past 5 years. I create unique headwear pieces that employ deep thought and new innovations, always pushing the limitations and exceeding expectations of the category I support. I work with the apparel and footwear teams to carry over the print and color stories in a unique way by partnering on the creation of graphics and prints. In addition to my seasonal work, I am the designer for all SMU requests, QS and QT tee and headwear projects.
