THE SPECIMEN

Cut from a dense Heavyweight Heritage Jersey, this piece features a signature garment-dyed finish that provides a lived-in, vintage hand-feel from the first wear. The structural, boxy fit allows the artwork to sit flat against the chest without distortion.

THE ARTIFACT: RIVER SHAKE

A drenched trail dog erupts into motion mid-river, water spiraling from its coat in bright, kinetic bursts of wilderness joy.
The river churns with cool mountain water, flowing fast and bright over sun-slick stones. Light flickers across the surface in rapid strokes, echoing the quick rhythm of the dog bounding toward shore. Then the moment hits—sudden, explosive, joyful. The dog plants its paws, lowers its head, and shakes with exuberant force. Through the lens of action painting, the scene bursts into motion: spirals of water flare outward like silver fireworks, droplets catching in the warm air before falling back into the river below.
Every detail pulses with energy. The dog’s coat ripples in tight waves as the shake moves from nose to tail, sending a halo of spray flying in every direction. Muscles bunch and release, paws grip the slick stones, and the river itself responds with a small splash as droplets hit its surface. The surrounding valley glows—sunlight reflecting off wet fur, trees shimmering in the scattered spray, the river weaving light and shadow into a living mosaic.
The forest edge hums with afternoon warmth. A breeze carries the scent of cedar, crushed ferns, and clean river water. The dog’s joyful motion becomes part of this larger landscape, blending instinct, energy, and wild delight into one seamless gesture. Nothing about the moment feels posed or deliberate; it is pure expression, the kind of happiness that only comes from cold water, open space, and the freedom of the trail.
As the spray begins to fall, the dog pauses briefly—tongue lolling, eyes bright, body glistening in the sunlight. The river rushes past, echoing the momentum of the shake in its own flowing currents. For a heartbeat, everything is still except for the soft drip of water from the dog’s fur. Then, with renewed spirit, it bounds forward once more, ready for whatever the river or trail offers next.

(FINAL ECHO)
In one wild burst of motion, the river and the dog share a moment of pure, unfiltered joy.
