I work in Illustration, animation and motion graphics. I\u2019ve worked for Frank Skateboards, Stance Socks, Grey Skate Mag, FTC Barcelona and Brut Magazine.\u00a0I spend my time skateboarding or making fun stuff.<\/p>\n
I see art and design the same way I see skateboarding. They\u2019re what I do to have fun. They give me a cathartic release.<\/p>\n
I see things when I\u2019m out skating that help me feel like I\u2019m a spectator looking in at the rest of the world. This helps my creative process for coming up with new work.<\/p>\n
From people shooting Heroin at the spot to a group of guys all walking around with the same hair cut. It\u2019s all just little sparks of inspiration. I love drawing or writing something on my grip tape. Makes looking at your board a bit more spicy when it\u2019s feeling dead, revitalises it. They all go hand in hand.<\/p>\n
