Welcome!

Well, I just learned how to do a Nollie (aka the Nose Ollie). I am pretty good at kickflips and working on my power slide! You know what they say, "Practice makes perfect!"

When do you "go" on red and "stop" on green? 

-When you are eating a watermelon!

You will find out, when you read my story, that it took a while for me to see, all I wanted to be was ME! ...Creating brilliant art with my pals! 

I love birds and detailing their distinct feathers. It may have a little something to do with my very first task as a crayon... coloring the Crimson Sunbird's unmistakable mask! I also think Cardinals, Pileated Woodpeckers, Pine Grosbeaks and Macaws are pretty amazing birds to color too! 

Easy peasy, London! Rich in culture and art! Did I mention it's also home to one of the coolest skateboard parks in the world? In the nearby town of Brighton, England! Who wants to tour London with me? We can get a birds-eye-view atop a double decker bus!

Well, if we are being completely honest here... sometimes. It would be really swell if you amazing young artists would consider leaving my paper layer in tact (aka my clothes)- I mean, I prefer a little dignity!
