Handpainted Vans #2

Painted these for the Canvas Art Show here in Oklahoma City. The show was amazing. I believe 1500 people made it through the door that night. The venue was incredible—hardwood floors, track lighting, full bar, dj’s and a huge dance floor with over 125 shoes on display. We danced our asses off to DJ Diverse — he’s the shit. There was also a 4 x 8 art piece that all of the artists collaboratively worked on at the show, which was auctioned off at the end. All of the shoes were amazing. This event put the one in Portland, OR to shame, which I never thought I would say that, but it’s true. Oklahoma City has a great art scene and some really bad ass artists. I feel fortunate to live here. I can’t wait till next year’s show. Enjoy!

New Skateboard Deck

This is a hand-painted skateboard deck for a local skateboard shop, Arockalypse. Their latest art show, “On Deck”, featured about 40 custom-painted decks. The show was amazing. Lots of great artists on the wall and the crowd was awesome. Think Ink’s artists were there (Josh Crain, David Bruehl and Fernando) representing some really nice talent. And as always, TDS (The Death Squad), Oklahoma City’s premiere skate crew, were there with a blinged-out board on 24’s, well they were 5’s but they kept ‘em clean. If you live in the OKC area, visit Arockalypse for all of your skating needs and fashionista apparel.

Standing…

I painted this for an art show at The Office, in Portland, OR in 2007. It was curated by Richard Jones, of United Design Group. Richard’s been a huge asset to the art community of Portland and it was an honor to be in the show. The concept was to paint on album covers incorporating an existing element of the printed graphics. It was challenging, but it was fun. It really pushed my boundaries and I enjoy the outcome. Sorry if it freaks anybody out.

Hand-Painted Vans

These are hand-painted Vans for an art show called, “Canvas,” put on by Shoe Gypsy of Oklahoma City. Click here to see the backs of the shoes. I was unable to attend the event, but apparently there were close to 1,000 attendees and 75% of the shoes sold. Thanks again to the Curators for including me in the show.

VANS Art Show

This is a board I hand painted for a Vans Art Show at Local 35 in Portland, OR in 2006. The show was curated by Richard Jones of the United Design Group and was a great success. Lots of talent involved and I was honored to be on the wall next to them.
