If not, then get with it, man. Skateboard artists are like, totally cool right now. And it's super easy to be a skateboard artist. Trust me dudes, I'd know. Because I'm like, totally a skateboard artist myself. So how do you become a skateboard artist? Shit man, I thought you'd never ask.

  1. Paint On Old Skateboards

    For real. When you're finished riding your deck, take it apart and paint on that thing. That way if somebody asks you if you're a skateboard artist you can show them your deck painting and say, "like, duh! How else would I have a skateboard to paint on."

  2. Make Some Drawing "Zines

    Don"t worry if you're not good at drawing. It's actually more popular these days to draw badly. If you're having trouble thinking of stuff to draw, feel free to use any of these popular themes: unicorns, deer, nike shoes, shooting stars, bubble lettering, rappers, diamonds, or brass knuckles.

  3. Get That Website Up

    If you don't want to build your own website then just put up a user gallery at fecalface.com . If possible, get a job with a magazine so you can sneak your URL into an article (msieben.com) for maximum exposure.

  4. Dress a Little Quirky

    If all your skateboard friends are wearing jeans, then wear slacks. Maybe buy a funny little hat or grow a moustache too. And don't be afraid to get a woman's hairdo. It worked for Warhol, right?

  5. Start Some Sort of Limited Edition T-Shirt Company

    Who knows, maybe a celeb will wear it in his/her next video and make YOU famous!
