About Joe McLaren: Joe McLaren from Colorado is an eight-time World Champion on the men's pro world racing circuit. Joe has maintained an impressive momentum in race wins each season - surpassing every milestone previously set in the history of slalom racing. Joe consistently leads the ISSA World Rankings each racing season. ISSA World Rankings ISSA official stats. Joe Mac - the Axe Army Salutes You! About the McLaren Domenica graphic: I first started making artwork at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. With the extra time on my hands during quarantine - and at the same time, not being able to skate because of my back injury - I was struggling to find something to express my creativity and that's ultimately what drove me to make art. I am very honored to have another pro model board with Sk8kings, especially one displaying my own artwork. I haven’t shared my artwork much with the world - so I guess you can call this my "art debut". The name of this piece is “DOMENICA”. The original was done on canvas with acrylic paint. - Joe McLaren |
