Virginia is for Lovers
Instead of doing a last minute crawl through the shopping mall to find some cliche gift for Scarlett, I decided to go the creative route and make, to this date, the largest Valentine I could within a half hour.

Latest Painting: "My Baby Wants to Rock and Roll #3"
Below is the most recent painting completed: “My Baby Wants to Rock and Roll #3.” Many have seen and/or worn this graphic over the years, and I’ve always wanted to keep pushing it and explore some new aspects.

Skate to Create: September 2008
