As a way to keep our blog postings new and fresh, I've incorporated a channel on YouTube to display videos featuring PONSHOP activities such as Art, Ceramics, Skateboarding, and if you're lucky some video of our son, Diego, bouncing around. The "Videos" section of our website will likely be updated with more (and different) content to compliment the site too. Basically, YouTube's videos will be more like news clips, while the PONSHOP Video Page will be our feature "films" so to speak.
Below are some of the videos that you can view on our YouTube Channel , enjoy!
This is a virtual flip-through of the latest sketchbook I've been working on. Initiated after we left NY in 2005, "Equilibrium: freshman chemistry problems and how to solve them" got hit up with all of my art artillery: acrylics, collage, spray paint, etc. I'll continue to work in this book until all 570 pages are filled.
Shot in April of 2006 and left unedited until March 2007, These clips are of Mark Eyestone of Fred Skates and me skating Brooks Park in Fredericksburg, Virginia.
I finally finished up a new deck design for the Spring/Summer PONSHOP shop deck series. After countless smaller studies on wood block and canvas, I followed through and executed the MONO (pronounced moe-no) Medusa graphic on a skateboard deck. Decks are available at the PONSHOP Studio (916 Liberty Street, Fredericksburg, VA) of course, as well as Fredericksburg Skateboards (604 Caroline Street, Fredericksburg, VA).
All decks are made with North American Hard Rock Maple and come in three widths: 7.5" , 7.75", and 8.0" All artwork is done by Gabriel Pons of the PONSHOP Price: $45 w/griptape If interested in purchasing, contact me at shop@ponshopstudio.com.These decks are made to skate, so for all you rippers out there that want some good wood and original artwork under your feet, stop by check 'em out! -G
Gabe Pons and Rob Landeck followed up their Hyperion Art Show by pitching in for the "Party For Charity" event that took place on Friday, March 30th at the Third Floor Studio (810 Caroline Street, Fredericksburg, VA). Gabe and Rob painted two large canvas murals while bands Boy/Girl, The Gay Blades, and The Transmitters kept people rocking. Organized by Eric Bruner Yang of Pash, this party brought out alot of the young and creative party goers for a good cause. The evening included a collective art show, live music, live painting, and a showing of the recently released Fred Skates/Magic Bullet video "City By The Battlefield." At the end of the night, the canvases were raffled off and much money was raised to benefit the Thurman Brisben Homeless Shelter. More more info on the Party For Charity, click here.
