Who am i even?

Hello, deep diving reader.

My name is Chris Vanderhoof. I wanted to take a moment to explain my various projects. Firstly, there is me as HOOF IN DENVER. That’s just me, experimenting and arting all over the place. I have a little nook at Quince Coffee House, where my friend Kate gives me a little space to hawk my wares. In addition there is also my shop right here on my site for stickers, tees and more.

Next we have me and my bro, Derek Huffman. We basically grew up together. Together we are known as Achilles Duo and we make large format paintings that we tour around at local Colorado and Wyoming watering holes. For a while we were doing pop pet portraits that we sold worldwide but that got too tedious. Who knows, maybe you’ve seen our unique advertising in Boulder, or you even have a pet portrait. Anyway, we have a unique style that is colorful, street art inspired and ridiculous. We have fun out there.

Then we have CO/MA Collabs. This is Aaron Hill (from Salem, MA) and I, designing our little buns off. We focus more on bespoke print design projects such as large format posters and we did a series of mash-up sticker trading cards. Aaron and I used to work together, selling our creative souls to the man in DC. You can see our shared inspiration from punk rock and hardcore in our work.

Now that I write it all down, I have a pretty large body of work out there. You could say I’m pretty awesome. Go ahead, say it. I’ll wait.
