give a souless surfboard a heart

General Discussion
1

your surfboard may be

 

souless these small sculptures just may

be an opportunity to give it a heart.

transplant a heart into that inanimate

plastic form and transform it to a greater spirit.

Once implanted no one will be able to see it ,if done opaque.

 set it in clear resin you can see the light refract

as the day’s passing light illuminates it…

or put it in a see through in your hollow board

or let it rettle around inside to make itself heard

ooh can you feel it? the sensitive can…

…ambrose…

the oblivious just ignore

everything

to pursue other passions.

caption request…

try

Dr. Frankenstein,

the heart is ready.

 

Which one of these hearts do you think goes with your new board?

I think the deep burgandy will pair well with yoour 10’8’'gun.

The little elongated heart is definately for the speed board,

and the pudgy is for the stubby.

 

 

 

… really though running your hands

through these smothered in olive oil is 

the height of illness,…

 

 

if only they were edible…

Ambrose, Just looked at your website,  you are my hero

Hi Ambrose -

Are you selling those (hearts?)  I checked your website and the 'Online Store' doesn't show them.  Nice shirts, boxes, and boards by the way.

No surfboard is soulless

if someone’s hands brought out its shape

and defined its purpose

to cruise

slash

air reverse

hang five.

But by all means help the Lost Souls

of the NSPs

SurfTecs

BICs

Softops

with these hopeful hearts.

sitting tonite with

my wife plotting

the place ment

of the hearts

on the web …

I started concieving

a laminate for handmade 

boards from Swaylocia

that little country built

surrounding this blue campfire.

‘Built with heart and soul’

to be ridden with same.

…ambrose…

The hearts pictured

need to be rubbed out

shaped another 23 today

got some older ones

in sentient tuti fruti

colors…finish and gloss

the twenty  tomorrow

many ready for v-tines day…

some with sterling silver

findings and silver chains

and a braclet or two…

oompah loompah oompah loompah do …

amby’s surf team

they’re looking at you

Yes of course Ambrose is correct! There are surfboards which are without souls and without “heart”, they are “manufactured” mostly in China…but not just there.

Love your website Ambrose!

my wife said write somthing when she condecended

to shrink this photo t put on my face book page .

this is where I have found I can click and drag photos

 to post on sways whoopie… sorry it is not yhe back 

but is a substantially better photo.

the back is flat and orange opaque.

the res can stand considerable zoom

 

Some people say a man is made outa mud
some say it is muscle and blood
skin and bone a mind thats weak
and a back that's strong...
.but without a heart ,
a lion can only wander the earth
in search of a wizzard alas and alack of a compatible heart
can make the fullest of lives
as empty as limitless barren space ...
this is a photo of a palm sized heart
made of polyester resin that can be modified
for use as a drawer pull, a large pendant ,
or stay as it is to be a paperweight,
a pocket friend or a plastic healing tactile tool.
at any rate there is only one in this universe , I made it myself in waipouli not venice or hooboken or  in the innercity basements of exotic Guyangjiang. ...ammbrose... it was glossed with epoxy

Funny how I picked the same one as chippy as a favorite. If enough guys picked that one as a favorite the next thing to do is to send it off to China and have a 100,000 made then start marketing them on TV as the hotest thing since pet rocks. Maybe you could give them a second one for free(just pay shipping and handleing ) !!! If Chippy wants in I want it more !!! Give us a starting bid and see how high we bid it up.!!! Just like pigs I want it more than you just to keep you from having it !!
