Years of skateboarding has strongly influenced Beastman's characters, concepts and unique style, developed over a many years of drawing in sketchbooks and shooting photos. Heraldry, symmetry, family, friendship, nature, the ocean, violence, spirits, birth and the afterlife are all themes which are becoming more and more evident in his artwork.
