Skateboard Project:

Shown in my previous blog, there is a rough sketch graphic which swirls around the blocked off wheel area. This caused me to ask myself: "What are other things which appear to be swirling?"

The answers: Flames swirl. Hair swirls--especially when the person is in dramatic motion--as are a lot of skateboarders.

Silouhettes of skateboarders in action are good to show off their swirling hair.

Visually imitating this sense of "hair-swirling motion" and "flame-swirling motion" are the outstretched fingers of outstretched hands.
