Bulldog Skates

Painter. Wes Humpston is perhaps most well known as the artist to draw and design the original Dogtown skateboards throughout the 1970s. In 1975, Humpston started the skateboard company Dogtown Skates with Jim Muir. His unique drawing style, linking Mexican gang graffiti and Eastern mysticism, helped to establish a graphic style that has been widely imitated since. He continues to create original drawings on boards for private collectors as well as designing graphics for his company Bulldog Skates.
