Fiercely creative, and passionate about skateboarding from a young age, Erik’s artistic inspiration is rooted in his love for graffiti, tattoo art, skater culture and its aesthetic. What has evolved is undoubtedly a style distinctly his own. Erik is a prolific artist who is sought after and commissioned for his designs. When Erik went public with his most recent work, he quickly received international attention for his multimedia creations.

With a keen sense of style, great attitude and bad ass portfolio in hand, Erik came to Grinn & Barrett seeking an apprenticeship with G&B artist/owner, Jen Beirola. The rest is history in the making. Keep an eye out for Erik.
