CUSTOM ART


	8 inches wide x 32 inches tall Professional skateboard When life comes crashing in. Made with tissue paper for my color and a black ink pen. The background I used was from an old Italian soccer magazine.


	8 inches wide x 32 inches tall Professional skateboard This is my newest piece based on a favorite template, my bear coming out of the woods to have some fun. I'm still using maps, newspapers and tissue papers of various kinds in my artwork. I cut my shapes and hand draw the black ink on the top layer.


	8 inches wide x 32 inches tall Painted on professional skateboard A skateboard design of a samurai. 3D wood pieces with a spinning orb plus it can be used as a coat hanger. Right underneath the right hand I've include a hook for hanging things in your bedroom. Another fun element is the two discs behind the skull can spin independently.


	23 inches wide x 35 inches tall Painted on 1/2 in. birch wood board Materials consist of colored tissue papers and black paint. I used reproductions of old comic books as backgrounds for this design. As a collage, I overlayed many images and advertisements that expressed the public mentality of New York City and the young boys of that era during the 1960's and 70's.


		16 inches wide x 32 inches tall Painted on 1/2 in. birch wood board Materials consist of colored tissue papers and black paint. The base is an old California geographical map of Mount Whitney, CA. I created this piece for my Mother In law, after she passed away. She loved California! She loved to camp, the quails and the beautiful poppies. This is how I see her, relaxing under the California Sun. The piece is divided into 3 pieces which represent her 3 children. For me, this piece is all about life and how we are interconnected with it. All handmade.


	8 inches wide x 32 inches tall Painted on a professional skateboard Skateboard design with some 3D features, She's wearing pink pompoms on her roll with a bell on her roller skates. Original graphics.


	8 inches wide x 32 inches tall Painted on a professional skateboard I created the Highlander skateboard because of an idea I had about using clouds as elements of another shape. This has a few 3D layers, including a chalk board kilt. I love the idea of the patterned clouds.


	Hand painted using fabric paint on a 15 inch laptop sleeve made by Incase I hand drew my quail piece on an Incase 15" laptop sleeve to see how it would work. Completely smudge free ink and lasts. Original graphics. One week after this case was purchased they took it to Peru for 3 months and used in the field. The paint never smudge nor did the color degrade in any way.


	8 inches wide x 32 inches tall Painted on a professional skateboard This SF quail is cruising. All things Cali on this one. It has many 3D layers, all hand drawn on this cool skateboard. Original graphics. This is one of my personal favorites, It's a great balance between 2D and 3D.


	8 inches wide x 32 inches tall Painted on a professional skateboard This is a more graphic version of the SF quail. This has NO 3D items and can be used to ride. Professional grade board and fun to ride. Original graphics. This design came about to be part of a different series. I wanted to create designs that were more graphic using fewer colors.


	43 inches wide x 32 inches tall Painted on 1/2 in. birch wood board A graphic illustration of the infamous character Mr. Pink. Painted with 3D clouds. I wanted this piece to explode off of the board. Some of the clouds are pretty far above the main board on this piece but they really help make this image fun to look at.


	32 inches wide x 32 inches tall Painted on 1/2 in. birch wood board A large painting on wood. With 3D pieces I wanted this finished design to feel like you could actually use it for target practice. I also wanted to create a true multi-layer 3D effect. Spinning X’s and 3D lettering. All handmade.


	32 inches wide x 43 inches tall Painted on 1/2 in. birch wood board A graphic illustration of George Washington with some added French influences during his travels. I have a background in print design and I try and have that "poster" quality in my pieces. It really worked in this composition. For me this is a hand drawn poster.
