Hunter Knowlmayer, a San Diego tattoo artist at Remington Tattoo, has taken on a unique challenge that blends endurance, creativity, and community impact. Over the course of three months, Hunter is riding his skateboard across the United States as part of his project, Pushing the Art.
The mission is simple but powerful: to raise awareness, connect communities, and create art inspired by the journey. Along the way, Hunter is painting, tattooing, and documenting his travels, showing how art and skateboarding can bring people together.
The Pushing the Art Project
Hunter’s cross-country trip isn’t just about the miles skated—it’s about what happens in between. By stopping in towns and cities across America, he’s painting landscapes, meeting fellow artists, and sharing stories. Every push forward represents dedication to both his craft and his community.
