Visual Journal Assignment #1
Due: Monday, December 9th
A skateboard deck is the actual board a skateboard is made of. The flat, long, oval, is made from 7 plys of wood, usually maple, laminated together. Decks are often decorated with graphics from the company that makes them.

| Mrs. Walkers's skateboard deck example |
For your first visual journal assignment, you will be creating a personal skateboard deck. Imagine that you were hired by a skateboarding company to create a deck that reflects your own personality and style, but also a deck that you could market to the general public.
Your design should be drawn in the shape of an actual deck (long oval) and it should take up an entire page in your sketchbook. If you would like to work on a larger scale, Mrs. Walker has larger drawing paper available.
Remember, even though this deck design reflects your own personal style, it should still look like a well thought out artistic design. Think about how to make a design that works well with the long, oval format of the board shape.
Along with your design you will write a paragraph (at least four sentences) as to how you came up with your deck design and how it reflects who you are as a person.
