The main shop-keep of this blogeteria is a self-denied master of many media. Another good pal of mine, John Britton, is also an artist and craftsman and has made a few cool works he has available. The one that caught my eye was the spark plug and scooter print. In the past he has done several fantasttic pieces as rally artwork and branding support for Brookespeed Scooter Disposal Service.
You couldn’t throw a rock into gaggle of scooterists and not hit a few people who are professional artists, designers or generally crafty by trade. Some take it to the highest levels of commerce and others may rely on Etsy or booths at scooter rallies to turn their creative product into bread on the table or spare cables in the glovebox. So if you are a 2StrokeBuzz reader and want to share your scooter shaped potholders that you knit yourself and sell on Etsy or anything else you are proud of drop a line via email to me at brooke at 2strokebuzz (and you fill in the rest).

interesting you posted this. i’ve been trying to think of a way for the scooter/artist community to be able to share their works online. beyond designers, illustrators, etc…there are musicians, photographers, professional chefs…all scooterists, who’s works constantly pop up on my fb feed.
i guess by nature of having mutual scooterists in your friends list, it does get seen. it would just be cool if there was a fan or group page, somewhere that scooterist artists could share their works in one spot.
overkill probably, but it’s amazing what a creative lot they are.
