The Kustom "1 of a kind" Project

We loved our artists work so much we decided to start the Kustom art syndikit Project. Artists are given a Grommet board as their kanvas and allowed to do whatever they want. The results have been incredible, each piece is hand drawn one of a kind

Bio

The sun had barely risen the September morning that Courtney Branch and Lindsay Carron found themselves on the Venice Beach Boardwalk in Southern California toting alpaca blankets, paint, coffee, and wooden surfboard creations. Their goal: to blast the Labor Day weekend tourist crowd with their ingenious idea of making beautiful art on the California-idolized symbol of a surfboard. From 5 AM to 7 PM when the last of the freshly sun-kissed visitors toted Boardwalk purchases back to their rental cars, the girls sold surfboards, took custom orders, and envisioned their very first concept of Custom Boards by Lindsay and Courtney. Yet, learning the stories of the homeless teenagers selling feather earrings and the tortoise sculptor supporting a family of five on Boardwalk earnings inspired the girls to take the idea further. Custom Boards became Board Well, an initiative to partner with nonprofit organizations and create change through each painted creation. A new-found appreciation for what art can do has been born!
