About

Abe Dubin, known to the international skateboarding community as Orange Man, is a professional skateboarder and artist, based in Los Angeles, California, and is currently accepting commissions for freelance illustration, design and video work.

Having graduated from Massachusetts College of Art and Design with a BFA in illustration, Abe has been drawing, inventing and building since before he can remember, and continues these practices as a daily ritual.

Skateboarding has always been, and is still, an endless source of inspiration, passion and joy for Abe. The energy, philosophy, and infinite imaginative possibilities of skateboarding inform nearly all of Abe’s life and artwork.

Abe has shown his art, performed live and premiered his films from coast to coast and most recently at the Vladimir Film Festival in Croatia.

If you ever notice a fuzzy orange blur whirring by you on 2 to 4 wheels (or more) please say hey!
