Ep 001, Labour of Love features New Zealand's very own Elliot O'Donnell aka Askew One.

Askew is hands down one of the most intriguing, passionate, hardworking and down to earth humans you will ever come across. With over 20 years of graffiti behind him, he is the epitome of a stalwart in the world graffiti scene, a well respected icon among the world's elite writers. 

Askew has been busy carving out a very successful career for himself as a post graffiti artist. Operating out of his studio in Auckland's Onehunga he calls New Zealand home, but finds himself painting around the world at various festivals and shows every few months of the year.

We were lucky enough to sit down with Askew for the day and film one of his latest pieces and techniques he applies to his current work, leading up to his Rarities and Oddities show. For a person who has achieved so much already, we can't wait for the body of work the future holds in store for Askew, as he isn't going anywhere anytime soon.
