Scratched Pictures

“This project is my diploma work. I wrote a study of 50 pages about the relationship of graphic design/arts and the action sports industry. My piece of work was inspired by a childhood memory when I was folding paper ships and putting them on water. The illustration I did is a mixture of organic and geometric shapes picturing a surreal imagery. Playground Skateboards is my imaginary company for this project. The name comes from my vision about action sports. I think that the whole scene is like a playground, full of fun and excitement” – István Vasil [Read the rest of this entry...]

These decks were created as part of my final exhibition at university a few years ago so the brief was completely open. I wanted them to be colourful and busy illustrations that were light hearted with a touch of humour and violence (nothing too heavy). It gave me a chance to work on my characters and the end result was a bunch of futuristic riot police-like characters involved in battles with various creatures. They’ll be up for grabs soon along with other things through my new online shop at www.kristiandouglas.com. [Read the rest of this entry...]

“Paranoid Park” is a Portland park of ill repute. It was the “Punk” hub of the 80s & 90s. It’s also a book of Blake Nelson and a movie of Gus Van Sant about a skatepark on Portland’s east side… Artistically it was my first great work of the “Hooly World” project. “Hooly” is based on the French word “houle” (English: swell). “Hooly World” is originally a universe of sweet creatures (the Hooly or Hoolies) taken by the whirl of life, but always happy (however, I like the idea that viewers could see many others things like teddy bears swimming in noodles or ghosts…). I have just played with that universe and the “Paranoid Park” spirit in a crazy collapse with referencies to underground culture. Follow the white rabbit… – Pascal Cuttoli.

“My work usually jumps between vectors and textures and this design was originally conceived as 2 T-shirts I featured at: http://www.redbubble.com/people/heavyhand.
Skateboards are such a fantastic medium for displaying artwork so I combined the 2 T-shirt designs and developed them. The geometric style is something I thought would make an interesting alternative design style for both T-shirts and Skateboards.” – Jack Lightfoot. [Read the rest of this entry...]

Hand painted From Above deck by Bryan Collins. This deck is exposed in the Art Whino Gallery in Washington DC.
Occasionally I like to include a small stylized bird in my paintings. Sometimes they are just blended in with the background, sometimes they are a more important part of the whole message. I wanted to paint a skateboard deck that showcased some of these birds. The deck has been painted with acrylics, then clear coated with a protective lacquer. – Bryan Collins.
