finished with varnish protection coating is both water resistant fade resistant and scratch proof. we like to talk about simple things as which restaurants are better, the last road who has been paved in town, who won the surf contest and where to get the special organic oil for an insect bite! i hope, this will meet your requirement. taking the attitude of always looking for new opportunities is what it takes to land a great job. my little dusty mind cannot put math and art together since i'm lousy at both :) happy to see you creating again.
