Nollie Flip

Skateboarding has been a great passion for over half my life, I am working on a series of images of sk8boarders who share the same drive for the sport - Capturing energy and motion on canvas.
Skateboarding is one of my greatest loves - I created this painting in 2008, my first self portrait. Working directly from a photograph captured by my good friend, skateboarder and photographer Matt Hills. The movement and loose effect of the backdrop highlights the intense concentration of the moment just before catching the flip and looking for the landing.


Nollie Flip banged with massive pop out of the cheese at York's skate park The Zoo, Mark Zienko is an amazing skateboarder and this painting highlights the motion, focus and energy of his talent. Blurring the backdrop to highlight the sense of speed, a glint in his eye knowing that he is going to stomp the trick with style and grace.
