Those of you who lived in Ventura in the late 90's and early 2000's remember this guy from Skate Street. He was the one that taught your little brother, your son, or your daughter how to skateboard. Heck, I even attended the girl's camp and learned a thing or two. I was 19 years old. Among the young kids I learned how to drop in, and all it cost me was a skinned knee.
He's a great artist, an awesome skateboarder, and an overall stand-up guy. Gavin was dignosed with Lyme disease some years back and today, he's confined to a wheelchair. His family and friends have done everything they can and more, but he still needs a lot of help. So they got together and decided to do something amazing: Throw him a benefit concert and art auction.
Since I can't play an instrument, I'll be contibuting some artwork:
They're still looking for more submissions so if any of you artists out there are interested in contributing, contact Mr. Brook Dalton: terzoli86@gmail.com
See you there!
Can you send me a copy of that stencil, or a very large version of that to put on my wall? I will contribute to gavin on the website, dont even need to fly to ventura! Yay internet fundraising!
