Gaige is 32 and has been drawing forever. He also makes plugs for ears and sells them on his small etsy site Plug Life.  His job is a sign painter/artist so he’s just all around a crafty guy.  He says he has a bunch  more sock ideas and was up until 2:30 making the designs he submitted.  Gaige was  the artist that also made the very popular Jellyfish AND the Zombie Foot design!  When asked what he was going to do with his $500 cash prize he said we was going to buy a Powder Skateboard, which is like a snowboard without bindings and pay rent.  Congratulations Gaige and thank you for your awesome designs!
