First draft of skateboard design. more possibilities awaits...
I chose this picture because people like to represent Frisco.
The reason i chose this picture is b/c they are west coast legends. Another thing is that they show individualism. they both got their own personality.
I chose this image because when you turn it around you read something else. this is called ambigram. Right now it says "Death", but when you turn it it says "Life".
My experience at true was cool. i felt at completely different vibe at true than ftc. I felt like i could bond more with true than ftc. i could picture my self working for true more than ftc. 

FTC and True Experiences

I liked FTC because there was a basic concept in the Store, which was Skateboarding. Even though there was a little of biking. I like the different Deck designs because each board was unique. I think when people skateboard it gives them a unique character. Also for True the I see the T shirts like decks because each T shirts has a meaning behind it or it has a rad design. That they take there time to make awesome shirts. I have two Ideas for shirts first is a pic of the Embarcadero with a skater, but I am still adding to that. Also the second idea I am in the process of thing not sure yet.




As soon as we left FTC I thought of a design with skateboard wheels spelling out FTC. I thought this would be cool once its all on paper, theres alot of ways I could mess with it.






For my second design, I want to do neffertiti, with high contrast and very fine details. I love this picture. Her profile is a signture of beauty, and grace. I tried to do this with my screen myself but the fine lines didn't turn out, it looked good, but i really wanted the detail.
