My surf / beach style art shares my fave Charleston, animals, sea life, coast themes as well as slingin’ the coast vibes across my local coast / surf brand Black Octopus Mercantile. I blend the love of coast and ocean into my unique funky style of tattooed animals, beach, Lowcountry scenes, sea life and the coast lifestyle.

I am a one person show and create all my designs from original sketches and then upload to the computer to make designs print ready. I sell my goods in my small local retail shop in my neighborhood of Park Circle / N Charleston.

All the apparel is designed and printed by me in the shop and we also stock local coast / SC themed gifts and goods that I also create. From postcards and hats to apparel and more Black Octopus Mercantile is quickly growing into one of Charleston’s best stops for cool & unique one of a kind souvenirs and gifts!
