Ramsey’s won 1st Prize in Infectious’ First Five Skate Decks Design Challenge Contest with his skateboard deck design “The Brawl”. Congrats Raz!

From a small interview they’ve done with Raz on Infectious:

“Infectious: CAN YOU SHARE A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE PIECE AND HOW YOU CONCEIVED OF IT?

Raz: At the time I was thinking of a cool pattern in the vein of M.C. Escher. I thought I’d try to sketch out people interlocking which looked more like a mob of people fighting. That inspired the brawl scene. I wanted it to be more aggressive way – and what’s more aggressive than a bar fight? I needed to limit the color palette to keep the illustration from becoming too busy. It took a while to get everyone connecting with somebody. I wanted each person to be dishing out some blows to somebody but to also be receiving some as well and that took some time to get down.”
