After posting my last blog about my present to my dear friend Luke, it reminded me of another piece I made for a friend in the past. I owed some cash to my roommate, and he had wanted to decorate his room and add some paintings and such. So he came up with the idea that I would make him a painting and not just any painting, he wanted a skateboard.
I made a few sketches for this this trying to figure out the best way for it to be represented on a skateboard because it was my first time painting on a board. I needed to make sure I grasped the concept of my comic book Couch Surfers while using the board the best possible way. Once I reached my concept I drew it on the board and then started painting. It took a really long time as it is more detailed and smaller then the usual paintings I create because it is more of a comic book illustration. It was a lot of work but in the end, I think it game out really well.
