Instant custom skateboard.
There’s nothing like a brand new set up.

Playing around with some clay came out with this.
So into volume lately, how different the connection with the characters is in this way.

Holiday at the Balearic Islands, best time of the year.
Apart of having some world record siestas, I also picked up some amazing pieces of wood, did a last minute wall about a bizarre love triangle between a shrimp and a moray eel and…  I did my very first underwater totem!
It’s all made out of reclaimed materials from the same beach and surroundings. Great times with Annita
See you next year Menorca.

Homenaje a Morente. Granada, Spain 2015

Homage to Enrique Morente, a revolutionary flamenco singer from Granada who passed away in 2010.
He broke the strict rules of flamenco, collaborating with rock bands in order to create new sounds and styles, being also able to sing the purest of the flamenco songs. His tunes have become a solid legacy, respected by all types of musicians.

He could just be one more good flamenco singer, but took the risk to evolve and the prize was becoming a legend. 
RIP maestro.

Some quick ones in East London while the sun is shining: A head dissection and the Tea pot. Spot them at Heneage St. and Hunbury St. while they last. 
Many thanks to Rom and Charlotte!
