Lip shack

My wife n baby took off for the day so i wanted to pump another surf piece out. Got too nervous to do detailed sea animals which i will be experimenting with soon. For some reason, i cant blend as well as drew brophy and my waves look very layered. Still look cool, but i want them to look more blended in the future. Im a pro at those cool little flowers now and tried a new sun out which looks way cool and does something totally different to the scene

Endless wave surf shack

I used posca pens but the new trick i tried was using "gesso" to base the canvas before i began painting. It let the paint stay wet longer for better blending and i will never again paint a canvas without it. I had to order some thick pens to paint this huge canvas(2ft) but it was really fun and i hope to try to get more detail in my next big piece and see what happens!

Posca on canvas

Someone has asked me to pain him 2 paintings. This one is roughly 12in across. Did not base the canvas which made it really hard to blend the colors because the pens dry so fast.

Surfing time

Here is the latest piece of surf art. I recently bought my first pad of arches paper. I got cold pressed and the divites are way to big. It is made for water color and since it it $30 for 16 sheets, its going to be a while before i get another.
