Skateboard Deck Illustrations

An ongoing hobby / project of mine as it's an 'artform' I really appreciate and would love to do more of in the future. Skateboarding has inspired everything I do. What better way to show my appreciation than designing sick deck graphics while my bones grow brittle.

SK8 FOR GR8 DECK

I was asked to contribute to the Sk8 for Gr8 social enterprise start-up, a progressive mentoring initiative

that pairs up talented designers with children in need of the opportunity to broaden their mind-sets.

We hosted 4 workshops over 2 weeks, in which we explored the processes of design: researching, brainstorming,

creating and executing. During this time, each designer took inspiration from their mentee, resulting in the design

of a skateboard deck. An exhibition was then held whereby each board was auctioned off with proceeds going

to the children's community.

Check out the rest of the boards here and Allison's awesome initiative here.

GAV'S BIRTHDAY DECK

GAV'S BIRTHDAY DECK

I was asked by my girlfriend's sister if I could design a deck for her husband's 30th. "Obviously!", I replied.

Inspiration came from none other than Gav's 2 energetic Bull Terriers, Goose and Beans, and a fairly unknown artist I discovered when sourcing reference. His name is Seung Koo Lee from Korea and a huge amount of credit goes to this guy's awesome artworks pictured below. Respect.
