My sister, Katie, started a blog about her reclaimed skateboards. She and her husband Carl and 2 sweet girls live in Eagle, CO. You can read about her story on her blog, www.acrylikstudio.com.
There are three girls and my brother in our family and it’s amazing to see how different we are creatively. It’s all across the board; from painting, to pottery, stand-up comedy, landscaping, guitar, writing, upholstery, karaoke…wait a I don’t know if that can be classified as creative..but he is good. It’s crazy. I love watching my siblings engaged in whatever creative endeavor they are doing. Probably because I can look back and see how bits and pieces growing up are reflected in their creation. I don’t know if I’m making sense, like Katie with her skateboards, she has always been a painter and her husband has a skateshop and how the two pieces (painting and skateboards) are now combined. I think it’s cool. And I love the fact that she is using something old and making it new, that’s one of my all-time favorite themes.
Anyways, check it out, and leave a comment for her.
