Needless to say that Tony Hawk and Steve Caballero were my first and only choices, not only because they are legends within the sport, but because they are both creative and I thought they would appreciate a project such as this. The idea was for them to create the random artwork, free of any direction, and through the use of spray paint. What we ended up with was a trigger system that allowed them to have 2 cans of their choosing at a time and they laid down the trail as they saw fit. It was always meant to be an organic, fun and creative experience and, for me as an artist, to simply help guide them from 35 feet up above them and capture what was being produced. As far as we know, this has never been attempted before. Each platform took many hours to put together but only around 30 minutes for the artwork to be completed. Their vision and dedication was evident, which really helped the process along. It was, without a doubt, one of the most unique shoots that I have been a part of and, because of the good cause to raise money for The Skatepark Project, made it that much more special."- Andrei Dumai, Project Producer and Photographer
