I have memories of late summer sessions back in France when i was a kid. The surf would be perfect and glassy but the sky, however beautifull, would tell a story of a summer storm and rougher seas settling in for the night... till the morning.

At Sea sessions

I will be in the Artist tent at the Sea Sessions in Bundora this weekend, painting surfboards. If you fancy getting a board painted, let me know soon.

#11 of 12 from the series.

I'll have another one coming up some time this week and I'm done with them. I really enjoyed making these small guys and I always wanted to do this "simplistic" version of them, considering that's how I got into painting in the first place.
Next question is what to do next with them... mmm. .. 12 pictures of surfers. let me think ... :)

Just finished paining a surfboard for my friend Peter of Aloha Surf School in Fanore, Co.Clare, Ireland.
