Wayne Peterson is a leather carving artist based in New York.

Leather carving is a technique of engraving patterns onto the surface of leather. In the United States, it developed as a way to decorate cowboy saddles, belts, and holsters. Botanical patterns such as flowers and arabesques, as well as Western-inspired designs, are commonly used.

Wayne's work incorporates motifs from American traditional tattoos, such as skulls, flames, devils, and daggers, into leather products, all while based on traditional carving techniques. These motifs gained popularity as custom paint and leather item designs during the hot rod and biker culture of the 1940s-70s, and are associated with countercultures like punk/hardcore and outlaws.

In addition to these old tattoo designs, urban symbols such as comic characters, the Yankees logo, and the NY subway also appear. The humorous and rebellious expression also shows influences from 1960s-70s Underground Comix and Kustom Kulture.

For this collaboration, Wayne created a leather collection featuring iconic motifs beloved in tattoo and underground culture, such as the Hooded Mosher, Pink Panther, Ripper, and Playboy logo.
