Christian Rosa is a talented fine artist based in Los Angeles and is highly recognized for his abstract artwork. He crafts large-scale paintings that focus on bold colored abstract shapes and fine pencil scribble work in contrast with relaxed brushwork on canvas. Some of Rosa's work is displayed in homes of celebrities such as rapper JAY-Z, and actor Leonardo DiCaprio.
Christian Rosa's latest work is in collaboration with Baker Skateboards. Together, the two crafted a line of limited edition bespoke skate decks that boast Rosa's artwork. The unique compositions showcase the artist's work and maintain his boldly colored aesthetics as well. A standout piece goes by the name 'Checkered Puzzle' -- it is part of a five-piece deck that formulate a whole image when put together. The decks are available for purchase on Baker Skateboard's website and the prices begin at approximately $55 USD.
