MY ART FEATURED IN BOARDROOM by Markus Davids
I am very excited to announce that I have been asked to take part in the movie BOARDROOM by Markus Davids. They are using 5 of pieces from my “ART in SHAPING” series and showcasing them amongst interviews with the greats surfers/ shaping legends in the industry. Being someone who loves and admires the craft of handing boards, can only dream of this opportunity. From the trailers to updates of the people being interview, this is setting up to be an excellent film paying respect to all of those that paved the way…. hand crafting a movement.

DR SEUSS CHANGED MY LIFE.
Here is a new block print / watercolor inspired by the man… ******limited prints are available********
So like the millions of people in the world…. Dr. Seuss changed my life. Green Eggs and Ham was the first book I ever read. I had piles of his poems littered with free spirited illustrations everywhere. There was a period of my life when I was fascinated with drawing like him, opening my mind to creating characters that didn’t need proportional bodies and faces, arms or legs, like I was so used to drawing. There was a point in my cartooning phase where it was hard to break from what the form was “suppose to look like”, and be free with my lines. When I knocked down those walls, everything opened up for me.
Dr.Seuss I thank you … I am grateful for all the poems and artwork that 25 years later, I still cant get out of my head.
