TRUNKS ART joins BOLD FACE GEAR, makers of guitar cases and backpacks that feature custom art!

Redondo Beach, CA — June 5, 2015 — Bold Face Gear is a relatively new company based out of Redondo Beach, California.  They put themselves on the map when they came up with the idea of making guitar cases with an interchangeable front panel that conveys custom art for that "perfect" statement.  With the success of these guitar cases, the company expanded into the backpack market using the same concept of interchangeable customized art on the front panel of the backpack - which by the way comes in two sizes.



When I got the call from the company inviting me to add my work to their art library, I didn't hesitate.  These guys are professional from top to bottom with everyone at the company focused on exceptional customer service.  I'm proud to work with these guys and gals!  To read more about how Bold Face Gear got started, click here to go to Linkedin.  To see more of my work, please visit my blog or email me at chucktrunks@gmail.com.

TRUNKS ART is featured at the Ventura Visitors Center through February 21st, 2013

Ventura, CA — December 19, 2012 — Whereas the mission of the Ventura Visitors & Convention Bureau is to promote Ventura as a coastal destination providing contemporary amenities in an historic and cultural setting for the benefit of the community (I know, what a mouthful) - MY mission is to invite you to come see some of my art work I have displayed in the center until February 21.

The center is such a cool place because the atmosphere and layout is designed with "the visitor" in mind. With the help of the friendly and knowledgeable staff, it's virtually impossible to walk out of the building and not know something new, interesting and useful - even if you live in Ventura! Even if you refuse to leave Ventura's city limits, you will find really charming and meaningful activities that are happening smack dab under your nose.
Not into this stuff? No worries because you're just like me. I walked out of the building knowing what sea creatures live around the Channel Islands. Go ahead - quiz me! The Ventura Visitors Center is located at 101 South California Street in Ventura's Historic Downtown Cultural District - which is basically in the heart of downtown. Also, the center is open Monday through Saturday. To see more of my work, please visit my website and blog. If you're interested in having a custom art or custom art surfboard brighten up your home, office or business, please don't hesitate to contact me.

TRUNKS ART will be at the Vita Art Center's ANONYMOUS GALA through December 21rst!

Ventura, CA — December 7, 2012 — TRUNKS ART and dozens of other well-known and emerging local artists donated their creative efforts for a fundraiser for the Vita Art Center, a West Ventura teaching facility which offers local youth a safe and nurturing environment during their least structured and therefore highest-risk times: after school, on weekends, and during the summer months.

Called the "Anonymous" exhibition, the event features 12-inch-by-12-inch canvasses. The paintings are exhibited anonymously with the artists signing the back of their paintings.

"Visitors collect art without knowing who the artist is until after they've purchased the piece," said Vita Art Center Founder Mary Perez. "The fun is for visitors to collect work they like and maybe pick out a favorite artist's work or collect a new artist."

The Friday, Dec. 7 event begins with a 5-6 p.m. "First Dibs" gala, for those who want the first chance to look over and purchase the exhibited works. Wine and delicious appetizers will be served. After 6 p.m., the event is free and open to the public and runs through Friday, Dec. 21.

This is the fourth year of the annual "Anonymous" exhibition. "It's our biggest fundraiser of the year," Perez said. "Last year we sponsored hundreds of youths in our art programs, totaling more than $14,000 in scholarships to families with financial need."

All Vita Art Center classes are taught by local artists. "Not only do we help youth, we create jobs for local artists," Perez (center) added.

The Vita Art Center, located at 432 Ventura Ave. Studio 30, in the Bell Arts Factory, offers consistent, quality art education and mentoring which impacts social development, academic achievement, and vocational opportunities for youth and teens. Studies show that when youth have substantial engagements with the arts they are more likely to go to college, get good grades, obtain a degree and to hold a full-time job. The facility is an educational not for-profit organization under the sponsorship of Bell Arts Factory, a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization. Contributions to the Vita Art Center are fully tax-deductible to the extent provided by law.
