There's so many that have and continue to inspire me. Pushead first.

Big fan of the classic Jim Phillips graphics and the ones done in his studio. And although I'm leaning towards Santa Cruz, the VCJ Powell Peralta stuff has a lot of sick detail.

Skateboarders doing their own graphics like Blender, Chris Miller, Lance, Lucero, Gonz, Templeton...

Then of course Cliver and Mark Mckee have such a huge body of work full of cool and imaginative stuff.

Todd Francis is fantastic, really like Thomas Cambell stuff. Sieben is always fun.

These days, there are certain kind of graphics I'm not that into, but there is still cool stuff coming all the time

Can't believe I forgot him. Pus Zone in Thrasher was my key to most of the bands that I still listen to today (the Accused, Napalm Death, etc. etc.). I have a Pushead skull tattooed on my left hand, which is a mix of 2 different Pushead skulls (one from a Thrasher and one from a different Pushead piece). But it was kind of my tribute to him for getting me into these kinds of music when I was a little guy

Pushead, Gonz, Blender, Mike Hill, Pendleton, VCJ, Jeff Phillips, McKee, Cliver, Ed Templeton until he did his work with computers, Jeff Cheung, Benny Magnilao, and Chris Johansen.
I'm sure there's a ton I'm forgetting but yeah.

I like Nick Jensen/Isles graphics a lot. Especially that series with the shelves that he filled with each riders items.

Mark McKee World Industries/Blind and Sean Cliver Birdhouse/Hook Ups art have a huge spot in my heart.
Alex Olson never had the makings of a varsity athlete.

natas for graphic design (especially 101 era) and most of the dudes who wrote for big brother for writing. craig stecyk if he counts. gonz w/everything. i think mike v’s writing sucks but i appreciate that he went for it anyway. ed templeton. i could go on for ages

i’m not much of a visual artist but those dudes definitely made stuff i reference or have shaped my personal aesthetic (such a wack term)

McKee, Cliver, Fish, Blender, early Templeton, Bratrud, Millard and Mander (because I gotta rep the swedes).
Also, one of my favorite underground cartoonists Johnny Ryan (my profile pic) has done some stuff for Deathwish lately so I'd say him as present favorite.

Heaps of good artists already posted I reckon for companies insight and analog had real good art direction

I think insight got bought or something, it’s terrible now so they may as well be a past company

Looking at boards in CCS started my childhood dream of seeing my art on a board. Still havent acheived it, done shirts and sticks for some small companies but no one has gone through with a run of boards. Lucero, Blender, Gonz, Pendleton... I'm actually more inspired by vintage comic books, cartoons and pulp art these days but I still love skate art

Michael Leon. All the Rasa Libre shit was fire.

Also really like Quasi nowadays.

Favorite house artist for sure.

I've always loved Jef Whitehead's offering for Anti Hero. Think he did a guest board for Krooked, too.

From an art direction and design standpoint:

Michael Leon - Rasa Libre, Nike, Stacks (hmm feels kind of dated actually)
Chad Bowers - Quasi
John Vitale - The Killing Floor
Them Habibis at Carpet Company
Whoever is behind Pass~Port

There so so much garbage out there like Thank You, Jart, those bobbleheads on PlanB, tons of DGK stuff...Fuck there are some companies without a single decent graphic...
