Mighty Jaxx have collaborated with famed skate/surf illustrator Jimbo Phillips, transforming his ‘Easyrider’ design into a sculptural art collectible. Another great transition from illustration to art toy. So much to look at from every angle.
“Jimbo is an artist from Santa Cruz, California, who was literally raised on eye popping graphics. His father, Jim Phillips, designed all the artwork for Santa Cruz Skateboards in the 70’s and 80’s and was the creator of the iconic “Screaming Hand” logo. At age 18 Jimbo began working for his father doing graphics for the skateboard industry (Santa Cruz Skateboards), creating eye-popping graphics for t-shirt designs, decals, magazine ads, and skateboards. Keep your eyes peeled for Jimbo’s graphic assault!”
