OEM


Image may contain: one or more people


























OEM is a student in her last sem at OSF. Her brand is Often Extremley Mad and they exist to express anger through illustration. For her first personal board this semester she created a classic street deck with a spray painted image. She decided to use colours from her brand (Gold, Black, White) to make a bold picture. The clouds in her brand represent a storm cloud that follows her around and is forsay her anger, in this image you can see a boy tearing open his head and releasing the golden storm cloud from his mind. She chose to mist the clouds with gold to show how powerful the storm can be and the golden lighting bolt eyes tie in her logos teeth also creating a nice reflective pop to his face. This board was made out of Canadian maple, pressed, shaved and sanded down to create a smooth and rideable deck.
