Local Skateboard Art


A skateboarding shop in downtown Willits, called Locals, recently commissioned a bunch of area artists to create some unique boards to be displayed in the back of the store for a while and then auctioned. Here is just a small sampling. I particularly like the board at the bottom in this image, showing the Richard Nixon quote, "When the President does it, that means that it's not illegal."

Wonderful! I love street art (which I define as art on everyday objects) of all kinds. They make life so much more colorful and interesting.

Cool art, and there's a W joke in there somewhere...

Are they being auctioned for charity? There are really some nice pieces of work.

Halcyon - The auction apparently was the artists' choice to donate proceeds to Our Daily Bread kitchen or to keep.

I'm glad you all enjoyed these as much as I did.
