Say Hi here!: joetamponi@gmail.com

I’m a freelance illustrator inspired by skateboarding, surfing, punk rock art from 80s/90s. I grew up skateboarding, dreaming about California seeing the eye catchy graphics from Zero Skateboards and Santa Cruz Skateboards, but I’ve always been fascinated by the psychedelic art from 60s-70s. The stunning Work of Wes Wilson and Stanley Mouse. 

In 2013 I created a streetwear brand named Oldprow which lasts to 2017, then I started freelancing full time, basically trying to do what I love starting with the customer’s idea. 

I worked with clothing brands, coffee roasters, craft beer producers, skateboard brands, to create bold super colored illustrations for die-cut stickers, t-shirts, coffee packs, skateboard decks, beer cans, and album covers too.
