Efdot Optimist Iconoflage Deck

This was one of my first Iconoflage skate deck projects. I created this piece for my optimistic friend Eric Friedensohn AKA Efdot.

I used his "Optimist" logotype that he had started to design before a catastrophic fire destroyed his apartment, yet his sketch survived the flames hiding in his scanner. From there, the word gained a deep meaning for him.

Along with his passion for bringing optimism through his art and design, he loves skateboarding, and I wanted to bring these two things together for him. The artwork is a composition of his optimism, art, tools, and skateboarding.
