Skatepark Fundraiser PRESALE!



Ok, folks. Here we go! Time to start raising some money to help Corning, NY (my hometown) get a new skatepark and here's your chance to help out by purchasing a commemorative t-shirt honoring the one and only OLD PARK! All profits from the shirt sales will go towards getting a new spot built in Denison Park.

This is PRE-SALE ONLY for the time being. I will keep the pre-order going until August 31st to give everyone ample time to find out about this and get in an order if they'd like. Orders will start shipping out a month after the pre-sale ends.

Shirts will be available in S, M, L, XL and come in black on white tee or blue on white tee (a nod to Corning's Little Joe tower). All tees will be printed with solvent and lead-free, water based inks on 100% cotton Gildan Hammer tees in Cleveland, OH.

Click on link below to PRE-ORDER and click on either t-shirt image based on the color way you'd prefer and then scroll down to choose your size. Images of sample t-shirts and phase 1 design of the new skatepark below.

The skatepark as it stands now. The city initially considered bulldozing the original park (which they did) and putting down a pad for prefab ramps. We think that with enough time and money we can get something built that would be far superior and withstand the northeast season changes over the years.



These are the current renderings of our initial skatepark design. Things will most likely change as time goes on but we are hopeful that we can get something very similar to this built.

Breakdancing in Quarantine Times



"We Gotta Breakdance to Save The World"
14.5 x 19.5"

This is the last of 3 new pieces I made for a spring show at Homegrown Skateshop in Ithaca, NY that, sadly, is not going to happen for the foreseeable future. Some of the scenarios happening in this drawing actually happened while we skated the park in our younger days, and even happened as recently as last year. I'll let you decide what is fact and fiction. Hopefully we can pull a show together for the fall so people can actually see these bad boys up close. 



I originally was going to have the gas station at night be the setting of this piece but decided to save this for another piece.
