Peace Through Skate



Teacher is trying to make the world a more peaceful place. In addition to his recently posted 'PTA-Peace Through Ass', he is also bringing Peace Through Skate.

Absolutely love this image, featuring a skateboarder with a mohawk. His body, along with the flip of the board, form a Peace sign. Hell yeah. Dig it.

The 'Peace Through ---' series by Teacher was inspired by an email from Banksy signed 'Peace Through Paint'. Teacher has taken that idea, and tried to spread peace through some more of his favorite things. After a couple brainstorming sessions with Bankrupt Slut and Licious, they came up with the ideas for Peace Through Ass and Peace Through Paint--and then Teacher nailed the drawing.

This image is based on a hand drawing by Teacher that was then blown up and printed to be wheat pasted. Amazing talent in the illustration.

Teacher is one of the only artists that we have been emailed on the blog and asked if they could use an image of his. We forwarded the email to Teacher, and he granted permission to an children's group to use his 'Education Bill' image. We could see this image getting picked up in the same way by others and becoming iconic.

Dig it. Stay up, and stay peaceful~
