The man behind the sack
My name is Iisakki Haapalehto. I am freelance illustrator, designer and artist from Finland
My visual mission in this world is to fill the world with eye-catching imagery full of humour and color
I am influenced by skateboard-, snowboard and street art and I am focused on creating visual material towards these amazing mediums.
When not designing skateboards, I do a lot of clothing graphic- and logo design work, along with various fine art projects.
I am currently accepting all kinds of freelance work. If you like the style on works and are interested in working with me, feel free to get in touch!
