"Not everyone is on vacation" featured artist Ben Horton (June 13, 2009)

"Not everyone is on Vacation" featured the artwork of Ben Horton. Thanks to RVCA's Artist Network Program and Ben himself for allowing us the opportunity to display his artwork in our gallery. Ben also designed a pretty rad tee specifically for Blue Hawaii. If you follow skateboarding then you already know that he also is the owner of Slave Skateboards.

Kelsey Brooks in Kalihi

RVCA Fam @ Blue Hawaii Kalihi (Punker Pat, Kelsey Brooks, PM Tenore, and Grant). P.M. once again gracing us with the presence of one of the RVCA fam as well as contributors to the ANP collective....Mr. Kelsey Brooks(second from the left). Kelsey's work can be seen on numerous RVCA pieces and around the RVCA compound. I've even seen his work on some Vans recently. Anyways what's even more impressive is that Kelsey's a S.D. native who likes to surf! That's what we're all about here in Hawaii right? And that's why so many people come from all around the world to Hawaii for.....surf.....sun...and fun!!!!
