Lennon, and Liddle

Hey everyone! Here are a couple of shots that have a similar color palette, and I just thought they would be cool together in a post. First is the john lennon record. This picture is of a record I painted for pete and his new wife!, who happens to share a bday with Mr. Lennon, They sent me this picture of the record hanging on there wall, and I thought it looked killer where they put it!
Next is a picture of pete on his liddle at uppers... A young photog... was out shooting with his new housing and took this shot...thought the colors where killer and also liked how the wide angle lens made a solid head high wave seem like knee high malibu. Gotta love the colors of summer in good ol california. Anyway hope to be back soon,and keep you up dated on whats going on!

Revive life Limited addition Print!!!

Hey everyone, here is a new print!!! I was sitting at my computer and noticed a bird singing outside the window. The thing that I thought was weird was how he was just singing as it was a dark and dreary late spring day. It was almost like it didnt have a care in the world, and wanted everyone to know that. So I thought about pollution and how each day that bird's life gets more and more polluted, and yet it is still optimistic about life. If everyone on this earth thought about the earth like I did for that moment in seeing that bird, maybe that would help in reviving life around us. Do your part, even the small things help, This little creature gave me a positive outlook into what so often is a very grim place to be!!!

Mahalo,

salt. Clothing.

ohhh yeah prints at the shop and its 16x20 for only 18.99

you know you want one...come on I know you do!!!!

Peter's got a brand new ride.............

New boards are the best!!! Nothing compares to them, the first line of wax, putting the fin in, the first time it touches the water... you all know the feeling. Not to long ago we did a little feature on hulls. Lately Pete has been pretty much only riding one...he has a Greg Liddle that was like a magic carpet at Uppers...but do to the size being over 7' feet was not practical for the dumpy beachies of his morning surf spots... so whats a guy to do...Along Comes Brian Hilbers of Fineline surfboards to fill the void. Pete just recently picked up a Micro Dirt By Fineline surfboards. Its as blade like as you possible can get with a surfboard. The rails on this board are so knifey and streamline and with the board being only a 6'2" it should be perfect for racing those sections to make it to the inside bowls of the local reefs. Congrats pete on the new stick!!! Take a look and Mollusk has done a great feature on Brian here http://www.mollusksurfshop.com/#videos_anchor

in there Meet your Shaper series...Just click on the Brian hilbers link on the right after opening the window and enjoy.

LiNes--_____----_______)}/////

I was recently working on some line art for some work I was doing and I came to the conclusion that two of the things I enjoy most come from clean lines...weather they be short fat thin curved or round when it comes to my art I enjoy them.... or clean trimming line of a point break or a long period swell that gives you that lined up swell that looks like the cords you wear in winter, I enjoy them. SO here is a simple tribute to my love of lines...and what they can create... Think about it.

Resin Swirls

One of my favorite parts of surfing is seeing how different board builders, and glassers decide to finish off their works of art. I must say that one of my favorites is with out a doubt the resin swirl. My friend bob has done a few killer ones for me and I am just blown away by them...so here is my tribute to all the board builders and creative glassers out there!!!

Chalk One Up for the Good Guys!!

After 14 hours of presentations from members of the Save Trestles campaign, the TCA, and personal testimonies from the public, the Coastal Commission voted 8-2 against the proposed 241 Toll Road.

How About This Guy?

Michael Peterson...epic! 

Save Trestles!!!

The Transportation Corridor Agency, a private company, is seeking to build an extension to the existing 241 Toll Road. The proposed Foothill Transportation Corridor South (FTC-South) is a sixteen-mile long toll road highway that would connect the current terminus of the 241 Toll Road to Interstate 5. The TCA is proposing six alignments for this project; four of which run directly through and along San Mateo Creek. If constructed, not only would this project directly threaten the world class surf break at and around Trestles (including Uppers, Lowers, Middles, Church and Cottons), the project would also result in the obliteration of Southern California’s last remaining pristine coastal watershed and substantially degrade habitat that is critical for the survival of at least seven endangered species, including the Southern Steelhead trout.
