I just sent these off to 4Down in Hastings, Tom asked me to sign them
"for a contest in ride UK magazine. Winner gets a bellwitch frame and signed print, 5 runners up each get a signed print if they can answer a king diamond related question."
I actually have 2 Artists proofs here that were extras. They'll be for sale on my web shop, so if you don't win them you can at least buy one from me?
Volcom - Jon's Ramp Jam
Last week I spent friday standing on the extention of a mini ramp in the Essex Country side drawing a massive skull to decorate the ramp for Jon's Ramp Jam. My friend Kev organised an invite only comp / skate jam for Volcom at Jon's ramp. Myself and Denise helped by painting the back bored of the ramp and Kev did all the other work. With Monster Energy drinks coming down and providing beers, BBQ and refreshments on the day. Some seriously sick skating went down and there were a few hectic slams. Keep an eye out for footage and photo's via Kingpin Magazine. Thanks to all that came, helped out, skated, drank and even more so to Kev for organising the event.
SAVAKAS
A little while ago I drew some designs for James at Savakas, he just sent me the link to show they're online now. They came out really well. This ones a "Black Angels" (they're a band, not death metal though?) and Savakas colab.
The might Boudica
This one comes in 3 colours and is a signature shirt for my friend Tom Blyth, he rides BMX for Savakas.
This ones pretty funny, its about the great divide between the poor and the rich, and how the rich have a power over the poor. Well, its meant to be that....

Volcom - Amsterdamn Am
I'm so stoked that this year I was asked to draw the poster for Volcom's Amsterdamn Am Competition. Below are some different stages of the drawing as it came together.
I'm so pleased with the way this drawing came out, as well as the colouring of the poster. My computer went crazy so I've lost my version of the coloured artwork, but I still have all the main drawings.
Detailed pencil drawing.
Really rough pencil drawing.

Death Metal T-Shirts
Naru at Galeria de Muerte has created this new T-shirt range called "Death Metal", as it says its all artwork by artists who love and vibe from Death Metal. I'm in amazing company in this range, with sick artwork by Mark Riddick, Putrid and Chris Moyen as well as many more. Looking forward to seeing these in the brutal flesh.

CREATURE SKATEBOARDS
I just looked on the Creature site to see what was out and saw that actually the boards I drew recently are out. I'm so stoked, I even emailed Lee at Creature today asking when they'd be out, now I feel like a knob. I've gotta say, I've been feeling pretty off about stuff recently, but when I realise that I've done work for Creature, one of my all time favourite brands, it makes me so stoked. Its a proper teenage dream come true. This ones Mr Crowley.....
This is the top graphic....
This ones a goat dude reading a spell book...
Thanks again to Lee at Creature for having me involved, you're the man.

MALMO
Last week, Bert and I went to Malmo for a 2 man road trip. I don't ge to skate or hangout with Bert ( The Hodgefather) that often so it was a rare thing. We skated so much, especially as Bert gets up at 5:30am everyday. Some days we skated for 10 hrs or more.
We stayed at our friend Tomsie's house, but as he was away our new mate Jakke looked after us, making sure we had keys, a map and bikes to get to the spots and parks.
We had to fix the puncher in the bike Tomsie left for Bert and then we on the road with out steeds of steel.
This one's mine, well actually its Jezza's bike, but mine for the week.
PURE GAME
This is American Will, he hooked us up big time. He had a few days off work, and by the time we'd skated 2 parks in the morning Will was then ready to be a true gent and drive us out to a park or too outside Malmo. What a legend!!
