“The Laser’s Edge” at McLeod Residence April 4th
Closed Published by grasshut March 27th, 2008 in NewsHey all, Martin here–
New show going up Friday April 4th at McLeod Residence (2209 2nd Ave, Seattle) of laser-etched skatedecks. Starring the likes of Grass Hut pal Shawn Wolfe, plus 2H, Parskid, Soopajdelux, and little ol’ me. The Laser’s Edge is curated by Kristen Rask of Schmancy and all decks were laser-fied by Kurt Barbee (5280 Lasers). Not sure of the opening hours, but I’ll bet it’s the average 6 to 9pm , seein ‘ how it’s on first Friday and all. Definitely worth a gander, as lasers are all fancy and stuff. Here’s a peek at mine and Shawn’s:


Show your love and show up at this show…

Check out the new green colorway of full size Ojo Rojo! Gargamel’s first full-detailed color vinyl. Due for release on March 30th at Thrashout. I’m not sure who will be carrying these here but I heard some will be making it stateside.
More colorways to follow of course. I designed one for “Tentacles, Horns, Scales”, the upcoming art show and toy release event starring Bwana Spoons, Koji Harmon, and myself at Thrashout in Tokyo, April 19th. I’m not spilling the beans on what that one will look like, but I can say that it’s gonna be sweeeeeet.
On to the pix:
