Saturday went off !! Loads of heads from all the generations braved the cold to witness 20 years Drawing Boards creations. I was genuinely blown away by the support and love in the room. Was rad to hear so many stories and have a laugh with old and new friends. So grateful to my friend Skinner for helping me get everything lined up. Also thankful to my family Mill and Tab for allowing me the space to get it done. Photos by the talented Gillian Clarkson.. The boards will be hanging Mid Street Lab until February 1st soo if you missed it (or even if you want to check it again) it’s open from 12-5pm Mon to Sat.. Big thanks of course to the man about town JJ for this opportunity .. Hope to see you there.

It’s been a couple of years since I did an exhibition.. To celebrate 20 years and the release of Drawing Boards - The Book I will be displaying a history of decks past and present. It’s on January 11th Mid Street Lab in Brighton.

It's happening ..... Drawing Boards 'The Book' is on it's way ...

This project is an in-depth documentation of almost 20 years of graphics. It's a coffee table style hardback book made up of 88 pages with quality photography and breakdowns on each graphic. Explaining the reasoning and thought process behind each one. Here's a clip made at Scene Studios in Nottingham when Si and I spent 3 days photographing all the decks.

The Healing Powers of Cacao

As a kid I loved chocolate but I’d never really tried pure Cacao by itself. I remember drinking it before a skate and feeling really present and energised, which got me thinking about cacao as a plant medicine. I started drinking it in a new way and understanding the properties of this super food in its raw state. With the guidance of my girl Tab I started researching all the hype behind this humble little pod full of seeds. I felt inspired by the stories of the Mayans and how they used cacao in a sacred way. To them it was more precious than gold. I love that it opens up the blood vessels so there’s an increase in oxygen pumping through the body and that it’s full of antioxidants. It’s also a powerful source of bliss chemicals which help alleviate stress, depression and anxiety. Making it the perfect pre-skate brew."
