I’m kinda into tattoos for the most part, and I’m also kinda sick of tattoos in general. And though I’ve never tattooed anyone, I seem to have done quite a few of tattoo inspired drawings in the past ten years or so. Someday maybe. Maybe not.

Anti Hero – Your other best friend
This was Julien’s idea. This is one of those drawings that I have no idea if it was drawn with brush and ink on paper, or drawn digitally with the Wacom pen trying to look like it was hand done. I suspect the later. The casual Friday tee falls into the same category.
Swobo Ciclistas Urbanos tee
Not sure if this was Tim Parr’s idea or mine, but it turned out pretty epic.
Spitfire Flameblower tee
This was an Andy Pitts idea
Zoo York cityscape tee illustration
Eric Drooker inspired tee for Zoo York back in 2007
Real 4Q collab deck
Max came to me with this idea loosely taken from an old chopper poster, combined with a modern stained glass mosaic look, the rest is history. Poster was printed on black velvet.
Real skateboards UV decks
You don’t like the Cops? Call a hippie.
Vans moto rocker tee
This has obviously been done a thousand times now, hopefully without my snake board. Roughly 2005.
Bar Owl tee for Ecko

Anti Hero Repo Man series
Back in high school I had stumbled upon a cassette tape of the Repo Man soundtrack. What was crazy and confusing was all this punk stuff in a movie…?.. I just didn’t know that happened. That tape pointed me in a lot of directions that I’m still following today. I had never seen the movie back then. I think I finally watched it when this series idea came along in 2011, sad but true.
