Artist contributions to DSC. It feels ambitious at times, but I continue to polish it. Every. Day. Getting closer to the "collective" aspect of what it was originally intended for. Thank you 🖤:

My Drop In submissions for the last couple years. Thank you for the opportunity @oacmn.bsky.social! While there are some technical aspects of my design and illustration skills that I would like to continue to improve on, "style" has been something I overthink too much, but I think I'm gettin' there

Made some progress during art jam tonight. Things in general tend to make more sense once I start to ink. Perspective, change, balancing all the chaos. This piece will be a reflection of all that. Looking forward to the Colony Collapse Disorder show at @oacmn.bsky.social ALTR gallery #penandink

New logo. I wanted to go with something simple, kinda neutral, while still conveying the DSC vibe. Shout out to @thatsgoodness.bsky.social for feedback during the process! #dapperskullcreations #logo #altbrand #penandinkart #logodesign

Art-A-Whirl prep continues, and the print quality of these skate decks was a morale booster amid the behind the scenes hustle and bustle. #dapperskullcreations #penandinkart #penandinkartist #skateboardart

This tee has been a work in progress for about a year, with the main hold up being the color department. Definitely happy with how the colors turned out though! The Listener is now available online! #dapperskullcreations #penandinkart #inkartist #owl #owlart #shirtdesign #shirtart

Drew this fella (Guillermo) after coming out of creative block and imposter syndrome back in 2018. He would eventually turn into the logo and face of my art and apparel company Dapper Skull Creations. Haven't stopped since. #dapperskullcreations #penandinkart #inkdrawing #skullart #pigmamicrons
