Earlier this month I created some skateboard decks for the Skate 4 Homies art show. Skate 4 Homies is a foundation started by my sister and her boyfriend. S4H works with after school programs to teach kids skating fundamentals and safe skating practices. They also work to provide skate equipment to kids who can't afford to buy it. The kids earn the equipment by completing community service and other goal oriented activities. They held an art show on December 18th with all proceeds going towards their program. Many of the boards are still available for purchase on their website.
This was the first board I made, which also happens to be my favorite. I called it "California Dreamin'"
I also made these two boards using photos I took. I took the one on the left in the Harvard Square T station in Boston. I took the one on the right in the Krystal Cancun hotel in Mexico. I am proud to say the Mexico one sold.
My cousins painted the two awesome boards on the top row.
This is the "Mother Board" by James Bayless of Ethereal Furnishings.

And here are a few of my favorites, donated by the very talented Abby and Amy LePeilbet. The top two were painted by Abby, and obviously the bottom one was painted by Amy.
