Does anybody here add personal touches for their leather jackets?

Long ago, I rode a Goldwing from Moscow to Kazakhstan. My mother had one of my Schott 184 painted with an image of the Vigen de Guadalupe in the back. The jacket was very well taken by the locals. I ended up giving it to one of my friends before I left Kazakhstan. Personally, I am thinking of getting another one painted on one of my nicest jackets.
Sadly, I do not know any LOCAL artist that will do an excellent job. Does anyone know a good jacket artist in the L.A. area that actually did some artwork on one of your leathers? If you do, please let me know.

Here is an image of what I am looking for.

The Japanese fashion company Kapital (which features elements of art from around the world) did a line of jackets and things with art of the Blessed Virgin on them. I remember linking it to a very fashionable friend who's also a religious Catholic.

HoosierDaddy would do it, I am quite sure. Sadly, he passed....:(.

@Kenan i like that. I have a set of silver dice i could add to one of my jackets... now i kind of want to try it.
That sounds cool and would look very cool indeed!

edit: Add it to your amazing vintage Vanson for maximum coolness :)

This snap cap from Good Art in Sterling silver is also quite cool, but stupidly expensive for what it is.
