Skate graphics shaped my art. Now I’ve made my own 🛹💀
 Finally dropped my first skateboard deck design—this one’s been a long time coming.

From designing a T-shirt for the cast and crew of the Lords of Dogtown movie way back in 2005, to my Screaming Brain triptych (as seen in 👋) inspired by Jim Phillips’ Santa Cruz artwork - Skate graphics have had a big influence on my work from the beginning.

These boards mean a lot— Hope you love them as much as I do. Adam x
 To hang or ride. Available now on my site.

Creating this series was pretty cathartic… Each piece involved countless tiny components — sanding, prepping, priming — before I could begin adding color and fitting it all back together. There’s a rhythm to the madness…a kind of meditative flow. Wax on, wax off.
When I’m in that creative space, the outside world fades. I lose myself in the process — that’s what it’s really about for me. That’s also why I rarely take process photos. It feels a bit like breaking the fourth wall — like when an actor looks straight into the camera and the illusion slips. But I did manage to snap a few this time.
The shapes in this piece were inspired by classic camouflage patterns, but I wanted them to also feel more fluid — like ripples dancing across the surface of a swimming pool. This one might be my favourite in the series.

Happy to be taking part in once again this year raising much needed funds in aid of .

If you are unfamiliar with the concept - Secret 7’s brings together 7 iconic tracks from 7 of the world’s top musicians, each pressed just 100 times onto a 7” vinyl. Artists then contribute artwork, producing 700 one-of-a-kind sleeve designs.

All 700 sleeves are showcased at a free exhibition at NOW Gallery, Greenwich Peninsula and available to bid on via a live auction until 1 June when bids will close. The twist? Both artists and musicians remain secret until the auction closes.

This year’s secret artist contributors include Antony Gormley, Sir Paul Smith, Robert Smith of the Cure, Yinka Ilori, Stanley Donwood, one of my ex tutors Anthony Burrill, Jimmy Turrell, Candice Tripp, and Daniel P Carter amongst many others.

Follow the link 🔗 in profile to browse/explore all 700 designs, find your favourite (can you find my sleeve?) and place your bids. Or if you are in the London Village head over to to see the artworks in person.
