Skateboard design

This was a design I did for a skateboard deck. 

It is based on the country of Fiji. I decided to include their beautiful coral gardens with their many endemic animals, with a touch of culture and history. The top of the deck I carved away at the wood and then burnt into it to create the Tiki torch patterning. On the bottom I painted the scene. 

It was a lot of work but I was so pleased and proud of how it turned out. Especially because it's a complete original design. Never thought that I would be able to accomplish this at this point in my life.
