Video Days

Guess who just got a new computer? Expect more thrilling videos in the coming weeks.

Jeff Hedges has written me some blurb for this comic, so that’s now TWO 80’s skateboard pro’s who I’ve got on (ahem) board so far. If anyone is super tight with Tony Hawk, lemme know, kay?

What the blood clot

Hello blog readers, here’s 2 more pages, finishing straight now, this is the beginning of the empire strikes back style ending of the book.

I’ve managed to get OG Bones Brigade member Steve Steadham to contribute some words to this here comic book, hopefully have some more skateboard celebrities adding there names to the list in the next few days.

Hope y’all had a spooky halloween…

 

Never Forget

Blank Slate Books have updated their website, so you can now pre order my book even though it doesn’t exist yet and is just a pile of A2 paper covered in felt tip marks in a drawer over there, in the corner of my front room.

Skate and Create

Okay, so I’m currently in the middle of doing a Primary PGCE (that’s training to be a primary school teacher, folks) and I’m specialising in Art & Design (well, duh). I’ve got to think up and deliver an art project in the school I’m training in, so here I am thinking of what I could do.

Transworld skate magazine holds this contest called ‘Skate and Create’ which I think is in it’s second year. I won’t attempt anything like what the teams produced for this contest, but it certainly serves as inspiration. Anyway here’s the winner of this years contest (Etnies):

 

I’m a huge fan of THE GONZ and he’s pretty heavy in the art world these days, always inspiring. Obviously his ’skatewheel’ contraption wouldn’t pass the risk assessment for a class of 5 year old kids.

I was thinking maybe doing something with putting paint on skate wheels and rolling around on a canvas? Might get a bit Jackson Pollock.

Any ideas readers?

Tweet?

apparently when i write on this blog it pops up on that twitter site as well. i think it does anyway.

Schoolhouse Rock

Here’s two more pages to be getting on with. A school talent show this time with a band that only ever played one gig. That’s jamie on lead vox and paul on guitar (I think that’s what they were called – come on it was 20 years ago).

The performance was pretty cookin’ as far as i can remember, but to be fair it was no Johnny B Good (as performed by Marty McFly).

Here’s some other sketchy sketches which may graduate to the comic book or may be relegated to the out tray.

5 preview pages

ignore the blue fuzzy stuff and the font’s horrible (I know), but anyway here’s 5 pages in a row for you to look at.

Wild Thing

Here’s my entry in a Where The Wild Things Are movie tie-in contest that’s being run by Vice magazine. Wish me luck.
