JESSE HERNANDEZ SIGNING TOUR @ KRSF

Professional Photographer and a very good friend of mine, Francis Ramos, attended the Jesse Hernandez Signing Tour event at KRSF and took a bunch of quality pictures in the process. From what I've seen(always), Jesse Hernandez has a very strong following in his hometown of San Francisco. The event drew crowds of people waiting to not only pick up his newly released 8" Jaguar Warrior Dunny but to also get an opportunity for a friendly meet and great. I've talked to Jesse on numerous occasions and he's one of the coolest and most down to earth artists out there. Check the slideshow below for complete coverage of this event... Thanks Francis!!!

Info posted by Kano:

"Wassup everybody,

Well it's been a crazy month full of custom shows and deadlines and there's no better way to go into the following month with a toy release/signing. Presented by My Plastic Heart and yours truly comes the official Bodega release, sponsored by Bombin' magazine and equipped with quarterwaters and ghetto snacks for public consumption. MPH will have 30 pieces on hand so get there early before they decide to bounce and wreck havoc on the lower east side like a bunch of drunken gremlins.

There will also be some Bodega art created exclusively for this event."
