The Purple Wall

Why This Exists

In 2012, I lost my father to pancreatic cancer. He was a self-made man — a mechanic who built his own business and literally constructed our family home with his own hands. He was the kind of person who held everything together without ever making a big deal about it. We didn't get enough time.

I'm Brad, the one-man operation behind Goondock Creations — an independent art brand built on horror, nostalgia, and the stuff that shaped us. This sticker is something different. It's personal. But it's designed to be universal — for anyone who has lost someone, or knows someone still fighting this disease.

The sticker says nothing. No text, no explanation. Just the skull, the purple bandana, and the ribbon. The idea is simple: someone sees it, asks about it, and that conversation is the awareness. Inspired by the Livestrong movement — the brand carries the meaning, not the product.
