Skateboards make excellent canvases.
After seeing what could be done with skateboards as wall art, I decided to try my hand at it as well. Here you’ll find some of the projects I have done and am currently working on involving skateboards.
RPG Holy Trinity Triptych
In RPG gaming, it’s ideal to have 3 types of members in an adventuring party: Tank, Support, and DPS.
The Tank is the person who will be able to take the most damage and shield the party.
The Support sometimes called the healer is someone who can provide support to the rest of the party such as providing magical buffs or healing.
The DPS is damage per second and they are the one who causes the enemy the most damage.
Together these three support each other and the party. Hence why they are sometimes referred to as the RPG Holy Trinity or RPG Trinity.

With this project, I plan to create a skateboard triptych with an example of each of this RPG Trinity represented. The Paladin is complete representing the Tank. Next to come will be a Cleric to represent to Support class.
RPG Tryptic - Paladin / Tank
Paladin - Top
Paladin - Middle
Paladin - Bottom
Swamp Dragon
This was my first time painting on a skateboard as a canvas.
The design is one I originally sketched and inked on vellum to put in my window. The alcohol markers I colored the original with quickly faded, but when I saw what people could do with paint on skateboards, I found that old sketch fit perfectly on a long board. It was so much fun to bring it back to life on a new medium.
