Here’s a sculpture I made about a year ago. I dressed him up a bit for the occasion :p

I wish all of you a Merry Christmas and a good and healthy 2010.

Here are the skateboards I designed for a course at school. We had to create something  and get the inspiration for the designs from an other culture. I mainly based my designs on the motives in the west african Kuba culture. The motives are mostly on pieces of textile, scarification tattoo’s and houses.skateboard copetition deck kuba motief ontwerp 1B smallskateboard copetition deck kuba motief ontwerp 1small

I wanted to give the pattern something personal so I made a small self-portrait for this one (the eyes).

In these I used a drawing of a Kuba women that I did earlier on.

For these I re-used the Eyes I drew earlier on.

I still need to decide which of these 9 designs I’m going to print on a skateboard, so please leave me a comment on which one you like the most…
