Sidewayz 2011.....

I am part of the Sidewayz charity art auction/exhibition opening this Saturday night, with a huge lineup of talent leaving their marks on skate decks and snowboards with all proceeds going to the Christchurch and Japan Earthquake benefits. I was stoked to be given a snowboard...you'll have to wait to opening night to see what I made of it, all I'm gonna say I was a tad nervous chopping into the board with the old angle grinder! If you can't make it along to the show I'm sure there will be plenty of pics circulating post event and also there will be an online auction too. I will post deets when they come to hand ok.

Warhol Workshop.....

I would'nt think too many of these babies will ever take to the streets...Andy Warhol x Alien Worshop limited edition series.

No Numero Uno.....

Didn't take out the No1 place for the "Numbers" theme, however two pics of skater Shaun Latham are now up at the Mooks Artspace site. click here to have a look. Much fun was had anyway and again a big up to all the peeps involved!

Numero Uno.....

"Numero Uno" is a huge scaled No.1 sculpture modeled from the Rosewood font. Made of an oregon frame, a plywood skin and acrylic paints, it measures over 2.0 metres. (approx.5500 points!)

On Wednesday night I took it down the road to the Slam Factory for a photo shoot with a bunch of local skaters. I managed to get a couple of nice pics which I have entered into the Mooks Artspace January theme "numbers". Big up to all skaters who participated...you rip! and also a huge thanks goes out to Richard from Slam Factory.

My submission should be able to be viewed at mooksartspace.com soon. I will keep you posted, but for now checkout some video from the "Numero Uno Session" below....enjoy.
