How OSU alumnus Mike Staubus helped shape an iconic brand

In the world of branding, few images are as recognizable as the smiling face of Eskimo Joe and his trusty sidekick, Buffy. Behind many of the beloved T-shirt designs you have most likely seen is Oklahoma State University alumnus Mike Staubus, whose artistic touch helped turn a Stillwater bar into a national destination.
A man with short gray hair, wearing a light gray hoodie and jeans, is sitting on the floor of a clothing store. He is surrounded by various colorful t-shirts laid out on the floor and is holding a notebook and pen, seemingly taking notes or making sketches. In the background, there are racks of more t-shirts in different colors and designs hanging up for display. The store has wooden flooring and shelves filled with folded clothes.
