california cheap skates!
Thats what CCS used to stand for. When I was a young skate rat I would get the catalog and stare at all the boards for hours, picking out all the stuff I wish I could get. A mere 20 years later and CCS is a huge mail order giant and no longer based in California. I still get the catalogs just to see all the new boards and what did I see in the new one but one of my graphics! Not that I can compare the Spot Seeker to a Roskop or Cabalerro but it was pretty to cool to see. Please support your local skateshop.

the big ladjanski!
I did this graphic what seems like years ago for my buddy Phil Ladjanski. Both of us are bigs fans of the dude and recently Phil found himself a new board sponsor with Substance. When I walked into Nocturnal the other day there they were! So psyched these boards finally came out! Wheres my samples Harley?!

I did this one of Chris Shar a little while ago. The photo I worked off of was from this City Paper article they did on the band hes in. Anyway I thought it was a funny picture since it makes Chris look all crazed and hes such a mellow fellow in real life. Even though I felt like I fell short of capturing his full epicness Chris bought it anyway. The whole time I was working on it I was thinking of getting a picture of him next to it. Pretty sweet!
