360's, Flips & Rail Slides
Are you into Skateboarding? Well I recently followed up on years of
suggestions to make Artwork on Skateboards! I will have 12 decks, hand
painted with original ideas/ images on each one. No two boards will be
the same! I will be selling them at the Art in the Square in
Gainesville, Georgia, on Oct 3rd. The boards will cost between $60 and
$85 dollars. In addition to full size decks, I am also selling
original artwork on Tech Decks...the little fingerboards popular in
schools! They are $5 and will also be original works of art...no two
alike...I'll have just over 50 (fifty) to choose from!
I hope to see you there!

8/24/09 Finally!
News from Mitch
" Hey There! First off I want to apologize for not
being more up to date with this news page. I am making an effort to be
more vigilant on the updates".
Some of you may know, Dec 18th 2009 was my last email, due to my 2 year
old sons' sudden illness that day. He was hospitalized at Children's
Health Care and underwent three major surgeries. It was very serious,
and had it not been to several key doctors, fatal. Once we cleared the
dangerous time, we slowly worked up our strength and rest. We brought
our son home 3 weeks later, and then my wife and I traded off an on 2
weeks each to be at home with him. Nothing mattered but getting our
son better. We had family help arrive and stay for 4 months while we
went back to work.
We are grateful for all the love, care and compassion during this
time. Obviously, any Art, or creative processes were suppressed or
simply gone. However, once our son recovered, and we started resting
the creativity rushed out! Thank you for all of your support!
Several announcements here:
My first print of a painting is now available, on the online store. I
completed a 4 year commissioned painting, and had prints made due to
the popularity of the painting.
I have completed my first Hand Carved Marble fountain this past
late Spring and Early Summer! I have many more planned!

handmade soaps, crafts, sculpture, hand sewed gifts, hand dyed silk
scarves and many other one-of-a-kind art objects.

tiles.

Commissioned Work
If you are interested in an image or work of art, but might not
"fit" your requirement, please e-mail me about a
commissioned work. I am more than willing to complete another
original image which maybe a better suit to fit your needs.
Size for example is not difficult to change, for a new original
image/ object. I am also more than willing to listen to your ideas
and concepts you would like to see created.
