Todd Bratrud for Volcom

Todd Bratrud has been a long time collaborater on many of the big names and movers and shakers in th skate industry. Primarily we know him through Volcom clothing but he has also been a long term artist and blogger on The Skateboard Mag and works with Nike, Familia Skate Shop and runs Teenage Runaway Urethane making some of the best looking skate wheels in the industry that we know of and still finds time to go skate almost every day. Todd has also created graphics and adverts for many of the biggest skateboard companies including Consolidated, Flip, Birdhouse, Enjoi, Black Label, Creature and Real. Not too bad for a guy from a small farming town in Minnesota! We really love his work and look forward to seeing some more of his off kilter graphics and ideas in the future.


Ozzie Wright for Volcom

Oscar 'Ozzie' Wright is not your a-typical pro surfer, this Australian artist, musician and film-maker has been riding for Volcom for over ten years now and in that time he has also grown into an art juggernaut turning out beautifully spastic and distinctively raw pieces. He is pioneering the non-tow-in kickflip in surfing and some of you may also know him as the lead crooner of the off kilter volcom-entertainment backed group The Goons of Doom. With his band mates, Cut-Throat Cowboy, Vaughan Dead and Killer Whale having conquered the land behind the Orange Curtain they have since played Tokyo, Hollywood and are hoping to go to New York this year. He is also the man behind the pen behind the zine that is Dope Comics and contributing artist to the simply brilliant Vol-Comics. Ozzie a man of many talents continues to spread his messy sort of sound and color to the world around him and make it a better place because of it, here's to you Oz.


Benny Gold for Carhartt Streetwear

Benny Gold hails from San Francisco and is primarily a designer that has led him to branch out in to his own clothing label of late. We love his work he does on carhartt tees and whenever he produces something new on the streetwear brand we love to have it in store. Benny is best known in the skate world for his work on Huf, DVS Mainstay Keith Hufnagel's clothing company. He has also colaborated on artwork for DVS, Stussy, Nike, Adidas and created several killer pieces for Real Skateboards. More recently with his own clothing label with Burton Snowboards, Krooked skateboards, Spitfire wheels and Thunder Trucks. We love your work Benny and we will keep you all updated on any future Benny Gold pieces we get in.


Eric Elms for Carhartt

Like the rap duos from back in the day, Eric Elms combines different styles and techniques. His creative portfolio includes graphic design, illustration, book making and art work.

Having worked as a designer for brands such as Obey, Supreme, Nike, aNYthing, SSUR as well as Carhartt, Eric now runs his own design studio, WeAreAdorn in New York city. His artistic impression in the form of wall sculptures - a 2D graphic blown up and fixed to the wall as a 3D sculpture - and other installations, do not have a direct formal or thematic connection to his commercial design work. But when you get to know all his work, artistic and professional, you'll find a common thread: everything Eric does is a product of his passion for work.

Eric Elms is that kind of laid-back person who does not need any special effects. Whether in his personal communication with people or in his work, he is able to adopt not only different styles, but also different perspectives. This state of constant personal change not only gives him the ability to just let it out naturally and still come up with a good product in the end. Every new perspective seems to be developed into another style, look, product or piece of art - intentionally intuitive.
