Skateboarding At Gimber Motors


The local lads hang around at Gimbers practicing their skateboarding. This is Tom bouncing off a palette on his board.

Caveman



Am back working with the skateboard theme. The 'caveman',I believe , is when you hold your board,jump down steps and then land on your board!

This painting shows the action set in my garden,I have adjusted the paved area to represent steps in order to include the skateboard figure in my garden. Subsequent paintings show the figure in the actual setting which is in the oval basin down in Cardiff Bay.
