2020 November - Kahala MKT
Commissioned work with Kahala MKT (Foodland Hawaii) in which Kean created a woodblock print that is implemented as the main visual imagery & incorporated in various branding elements throughout the market. The print depicts an arial view of Le'ahi (Diamond Head) as seen from the southeast side of Oahu.

2020 January - Olukai
Collaborated with the footwear company, Olukai, to celebrate the bastion of Hawai‘i surf culture with a detailed illustration of its perfect waves on a premium leather sandal - Honoli'i. The original imagery was created using the woodcut method of relief printmaking, that design was then laser etched into the footbed of the sandal.

2017 November - VANS
Selected as the official artist of the 2017 Vans World Cup of Surfing at Sunset Beach, Oahu, HI. In this work, Kean portrayed the world renowned surf break, Sunset Beach, in the form of a hand carved woodblock print. The imagery was integrated in the scaffold coverings at the contest site, posters and tshirts.
