AMAZING birthday / Father's Day present!

[AZhitman]

So, I'm sure birthdays / Father's Day / anniversary are a pain for Bex and the kids. I'm not really into gifts, and if I need something, I either make it, borrow it, or go get it. I don't like to shop, and I don't like to spend money on something *just* because it's a holiday.

Anyway, for my birthday / anniversary and Father's Day (which falls on the same day every few years), the kids and Bex brewed up an amazing, personalized gift that I'll cherish forever - it's just too damn cool.



It's a painting (acrylic on canvas) of my favorite car (a '65 Nissan Silvia). Our son's buddy Elias Farias worked for weeks on the artwork, and our two sons invested countless hours helping with research and edits.

Here's another pic with the artist:



Elias, aside from being a great kid and a friend of the family for 15 years, is a super-talented tattoo artist, painter, and all-around amazing artist. Check out his FB page: Elias Farias

Gonna hang this in a prominent spot here at NICOclub HQ. My family is amazing... thank you all for the beautiful, thoughtful gift, and thanks Elias for making it happen. Love you guys!!!
