I am beginning a series of screen prints, this is the first of many.
I already submitted this one to Julie Cox at the California Surf Museum, they are gearing up for an exhibit about women opening in March 2010. This print will hopefully turn into a postcard to raise funds for the museum.
I am a Southern Californian artist inspired by the world where the land and the ocean meet, by the moments that take place in its transitory environment. I hope that my paintings impact people in a positive way by revealing what is overlooked or difficult to express. Surfing, in this context, is a series of beautiful ephemeral moments. Experiencing one for a short while, letting it go and then finding it in another wave in a different moment. Painting, for me, crystallizes these moments of surfing and life that are transient, making them tangible.
