About Me


My name is chris lepkowski (lepkow)
I am a local artist around salt lake city, trying to make something out of myself but am finding salt lake is not the best place for an artist, but who knows?
I would love to make a living as an artist, doing anything tattoos, clothes, paintings, cd covers, etc.. anything, that would be a dream come true.

Anyway i love hardcore music, going to shows, listening to hardcore while i'm painting, just the whole damn lifestyle.
Well guess thats it, just trying to promote my art and possibly meet some cool ass down to earth people. .. louis vutton myspace layout
