GUYS can you help? I have no clue what to get my 21 year old boyfriend for christmas.. crap?

We are very different which makes him hard to shop for. I'm artistic and all about surprises, he is kind of mature for his age. We are both in college...

Things he likes in no particular order:

golf

Tennis

football

traveling

politics

books

art

I was thinking of making him a painting since I paint, but I would also like to buy him something. Books seem boring and what else could I get him really? Ties are boring, maybe a wallet, but what kind of wallet? sigh.. any suggestions?
