Recognize anything about the video above? It was created for FUEL TV by edition-maker Dustin Hostetler (a.k.a. UPSO) who says it was "partly inspired by his 20x200 prints."

Color Study #4 by Dustin Hostetler

The animation, which started airing last week, is part of FUEL TV's Signature Series IDs, a group of 100 artist-designed interstitials inspired by iconic skateboard decks.

About his animation Dustin writes,

I wanted to show the excitement I get out of things like riding bikes with friends. When life gets too crazy or stressful, it's things like friends and fun that get me out of my funk. It doesn't matter if it's paintbrushes or snowboarding, it's all about expressing yourself. I've always been amazed by the support action sports gives art, from skateboards to t-shirt designs and shoes, it all comes full circle.

Artists who have contributed to the FUEL TV Signature Series IDs include Dalek, Andy Jenkins, Saiman Chow, Chris Yormick, Trevor Graves, Andrew Pommier, Yogi Proctor, Dean Bradley, The Clayton Brothers, Todd Francis and others.

Dustin's edition, Color Study #4, still has prints available. To see his 20x200 favorites make sure to check out his awesome illustrated gift guide!
