A division of Urban Vinyl Daily, UVD Toys strives to bring to life products and toys of some of today’s most talented artists. Keep an eye out for more exciting projects as we continue to build the brand behind an amazing lineup of creative people. In 2010 UVD was born as a blog called Urban Vinyl Daily. We covered all aspects of the designer toy, street art, and low brow art world. Our goal was to help spread the word about what was going on and help artist gain attention for what they were doing. In 2016 we made the shift from bloggers to producers and we haven’t looked back! Since then we have created some amazing toys with some of the world’s biggest artists! What will we make next? I am an Artist based out of Chicago, IL. I’ve been illustrating, painting, and doing anything and everything art for the past 7 years. I’ve done various works from t-shirt design to logos to illustrating books to commission pieces. For the past year, I’ve gotten the most exposure for my custom work on vinyl toys. My work has been featured on multiple website and online forums as well as in print. Mid 2009 I developed a character named “Jonny Hancock” based on one of Chicago’s greatest buildings. Jonny Hancock is currently selling at Rotofugi, a designer toy store in Chicago. One of my latest custom designer toys was just featured on Kid Robot’s blog -The Kronikle. I like just to BE CREATIVE.
