New Skinny Buddha Site Launched

new skinny buddha site by zachary scheffer

Since the first skinnybuddha site went up over a year ago I wanted to redo it. I was rushed into putting it together and I never thought it got to where it should've been. So when I decided to redo it using Drupal I told myself I was going to take as long as needed. Well, it took over 4 months to put it all together including a completely custom theme built from the ground up(Zen, ftw). The site is designed around the three pillars of Skinny Buddha; Art, Music, and Apparel.

The Art section puts the art first and foremost by showing the end user a wide mix of the styles that Skinny Buddha showcases, while the Music and Apparel sections display their respective products.

Skinny Buddha finds, supports, and promotes local artists, musicians, and creators. It was the brainstorm baby of myself and fellow work-for-your-selfer, Justin Davenport. The site sells prints of artwork as well as locally screen printed apparel and music from a select few, including the main horse in the stable, the No Ordinary Cats. Artists include Swamburger, Headhunter, Tobar, Palin Perez Jackson.

So check out the site, and maybe you can find some local culture that you want to support and help us take Skinny Buddha to where it wants to be.
