down on wilson st.

I often remember this saying "skate or die" i don't know maybe it was a brand?
Anyway i've been hangin out at the local skate park quite a lot lately because i take young Will down to rip it up on his scooter amongst the talented guys that also go there.
It's a great time for me to sit in peace and draw, although it's been rather chilly the last few times i've had to resort to the comfort of the cube.
I come up with new ideas and take a little bit of a different angle with my drawings when i'm in those surroundings so it suits me fine and if i'm lucky i get a perve on the older boys!! [smile] 
When i was there today i was compiling a list of my designs and illustrations to be printed on postcards, mini sticker books and hopefully some limited edition art prints - all under a new brand that i've been working on the past couple of months but that's just a clue so *sshhh* i'll tell you more when it get's closer!


So these older guys were trying to master a couple of moves [at a high price i might add, falling and rolling numerous times at the hands of the concrete] they were filming each other and it was a pretty neat scene so i drew my favourites haha
They mentioned Wilson St. mid conversation, maybe one of them lives there? The guy with the sunnies on was


 doing the filming and the other fellow was one of the 4 skaters- i quite fancied his whole modernised jesus look
