SCUM LOVE


I'm a student at Oasis Skateboard Factory school and this is a board I made for my brand Scum Love. Scum Love is something for people who have been told in life that they are worthless scum. A person who won't amount to anything. With punk undertones through out the artwork of SL, we take those negatives and make them positives. Because we are all worth something, we have the ability to make something amazing. Embrace your title as Scum!

On the deck I have the SL mascot, an unnamed punker. His censored eyes shows anonymity; it is not just him but all of us. Dressed head to toe in raggedy clothes he stitched together himself, he presents the DIY motive that SL wants to celebrate. The main colours of army greens, earth browns, black and white were put on the board with spraypaint and paint markers. The board was hand pressed together on a form to make the awesome board you see in front of you!
