CareerBeginningsORFN began experimentation with graffiti in middle school, initially spraying stencils in his then hometown of Palo Alto, CA. By 1992 ORFN had taken on his namesake moniker and started to make a name for himself as a graffiti writer in San Mateo County and the city of San Francisco, along with his early graffiti partner Revers.[2] In 1992 ORFN joined the Bay Area-based US crew (which stands for Undeniable Sickness or Under Shadows), with Revers. ORFN continued to represent the US crew throughout his career, and as its leader since the early 2000s, was responsible for ensuring the continuity of the crew when it would have otherwise ceased to exist.[1][2] Sunset Tunnel TagsORFN spent years going into the Sunset Tunnel between Cole Valley and Duboce Park writing his moniker on one of the train tracks throughout the span of more than 4,000 feet.[1] Best Graffiti Tag, 1996ORFN was designated the “Best Graffiti Tag” in the 1996 “Best of the Bay” issue of SF Weekly, where it was noted that his tag was in view all over the San Francisco Bay Area.[1] Education and Graffiti HiatusORFN moved to San Francisco in the mid 1990s to attend the San Francisco Art Institute for roughly one year. During the time he was in art school he was not actively writing graffiti.[1] Exhibitions
Personal lifeORFN was himself an orphan. He never had a relationship with his biological father, and his mother gave him up as a child because she was unable to care for him. ORFN spent time in several foster and group homes before coming to live with the Curry family in Palo Alto, CA as a fifth or sixth grader.[1] In middle school and as a young teenager, ORFN was a skateboarder who was widely thought to be on the path to sponsorship, but after failing to achieve his goal of becoming sponsored, his enthusiasm for skateboarding waned and his passion for art and graffiti emerged.[1] ORFN is survived by a daughter named Scout whom he cared for dearly.[1] DeathORFN passed away in a San Francisco hospice facility December 7, 2016 of melanoma which affected his stomach, back, spine, liver, heart, lungs, and brain. ORFN was cremated, and his ashes were spread in the Sunset Tunnel by a group of his friends.[1] In Other MediaBoth ORFN and REVERS are mentioned in Palo Alto (short story collection) Part II, Wasting by American actor and writer James Franco.[7] See also
