New Creation Webapage

As I mentioned in an earlier post, I have recently assumed teh position of Brand Manager of Creation Skateboards, from California. This means pretty much that I decide what the general style of the brand should be. This is right up my alley, since I have been doing graphics for them since 2004. Now I get a bigger chance to step up their game to the next level of evolution!!

Anyways, the first step was to revamp teh webpage and that was launched today. Still many changes to be done, but we got a solid dent into it. Please support this brand, that pushes recycled wood and conscious graphics, so we can grow and keep expanding!!

Im Creation Skateboards new Brand Manager!!

It is obvious that I like painting on classic skate spots, cause in that way we can all skate on the art itself. Yesterday I did this simple piece at the infamous Big O Pipe. Lettering is not my strength but I wanted to big up Creation, the Cali skate brand I have been doing graphics since 2004. They are now promoting me to brand manager so I am stoked on the potential!
Creation also sets the intention for what I think skateboarding is about, as opposed to the stereotypical Destruction we're usually boxed in. In the pic Marc Tison shows a creative lip slide, with no destruction needed.

Sound Tribe Sector 9 Concert Poster

I was recently asked to make a concert poster for the popular jam-band STS9 (sound Tribe Sector 9) who will be playing the Georgia Theater on Halloween night. This poster will be sold by "Conscious Alliance" in exchange of cans of food to feed the hungry. If you're a fan of that band in that town, make sure to get this limited edition Poster!! I should have some for sale later on for those who can't make it there too. Holla!
