Dustin Cohen is a great photographer who worked with me on the Sunglass Hut/One Sight Project in the winter 2010. He has updated his website to include said project as subject for his wonderful portfolio.

If you have not yet seen any of the 100+ hand painted Ray Ban Wayfarers I did for the project, you can click on the link and see the sampling of some of my most recent bigger project gigs.

These were shot in the beginning of winter at my studio in beautiful RedHook, Brooklyn. It was a pleasure working with Dustin.

Enjoy the images.

Above is a quick Q&A with Ms. Jinna Boo, Creative Director of Grease and Glamour.
For me, a fun interview about the creations of the glasses. The questions were
straight to the point and fun to answer. Thank you for taking time to pick my
brain, as it were.

Safe to say, the last interview before the end of the year, 2010.
I m sure I ll say some other things next year, until then...EnjoY!

101219. Sunglass Hut x One Sight Foundation x Mike Ming

The last month was spent hand painting 100 Ray Ban Wayfarers for Sunglass Hut's contribution to One Sight Foundation. It is a cause for helping people in third world nations and for those unfortunates who have no access to eye doctors. The foundation sends Optometry Help to those in need. This year marks a third year artist series project launched by
