Maui: Late Spring 2010

This is on a surf board my friend snapped clean in half; about a third of the way up from the tail. I cleaned up those edges and made the elliptical cut through the middle. Then, I re-glassed the exposed edges and sanded everything smooth. (I was lucky in that it was a fairly new board, so there really wasn't any damage to repair.) After all my edges and surfaces were nice and clean I used a white spray-primer. The portrait is drawn with a No. 2 pencil and layered with white acrylic.

Currently this piece is in storage in Maui.
