"Life in Flight" Bandana

BANDITS Bandanas feature original and exclusive designs by artists from around the world. 10% of the sales proceeds are donated to a charity chosen by each artist. 

Ojai, CA based illustrator, muralist, and designer Daren Thomas Magee masterfully blends elements of natural, supernatural, and human connectedness in his work, which is both a perfect commentary and a welcome antidote for our modern times. In his own words, Daren explains "The aim of my work is to speak to the space between imagination and reality."

In the Ojai Valley, there is a daily phenomenon known locally as the "Pink Moment." As the sun sets at dusk, the Topa Topa mountains to the Northeast become bathed in marvelously muted tones of pink, peach, and red. This fleeting natural alpenglow is at it's most stunning from November thru February, but has been drawing folks to Ojai year-round for generations. 

With colors reminiscent of the "Pink Moment," Daren's bandana design serves as an homage to the magical Ojai Valley, and wearable reminder of nature's most majestic, uplifting phenomena.
