Read MorePlaying with Posca pens on the same set of fins that where once smokey… A pretty time consuming process, but an interesting result?
Read More…with my art making prolific… producing in large quantities or with great frequency; highly productive: a prolific writer. profusely productive or fruitful (often fol. by in or of): a bequest prolific of litigations. characterized by abundant production: a prolific year for tomatoes. Hard to achieve in a busy life but something I must do.
Read MoreAs a general rule I don’t get a lot out of computer generated art. Some of it is amazing but a lot of Photoshop airbrushing brings the whole scene down, it sure as hell isn’t accepted by the art world as ‘art’ but that’s not saying a great deal… Give it 10, maybe 20 years […]
Read MoreInteresting concept – a real talking point if nothing else “what happened to your board man?” The repurposing of waste materials can’t be knocked. Surfboards are a consumable product in the most part. With a varied life expectancy, anything that keeps waste out of land fill and provides a second life for a product is […]
Read MoreHad a radical paddle at 13th yesterday arvo, a couple of reforms on the inside were pealing through ok but the odd clean up set kept things interesting… Good for surf fitness if nothing else.
Read MoreI have added a little gallery of my artwork to the site, check it out here.
Read MoreNice clean waves around over the last couple of weeks as mentioned. The run has come to a bit of an end but hopefully not for long.
Read MoreDidn’t think retro boards went this well, maybe they do when you really rip? Shamelessly pinched from Surfy Surfy! It was too good not to. Pro surfer Eli Mirandon breaks down his air he did on his retro fish that he shaped himself.
Read MoreIn general a good time for waves, Rippy pro and all. We are right into the thick of it now and conditions have been fun, light wind and a little swell, not epic by any proprtion but good fun. Nice to say good bye to summer surf and hello to some quality. Hope it keeps […]
Read MoreCrazy winter like weather this weekend, it seems like we might have skipped a season! Gota love Victoria… Got some reasonable waves though, down @ Spout, with the odd 3 foot set and a little left wedge running off. Water temp seems to be dropping alredy, lucky for us, we are heading North in a […]

Conditions: we have had zero waves all week, to be expected in this neck of the woods at this […]
Read MorePretty amazing footage, it had me in right away. I am sure this is what George Greenough was looking for way back when… Brian Conley also has a wave submited in the Billabong XXL ride of the year, from 2 angles so you can check the POV and how it looked from the beach, very […]
Read MoreThe power was out for 6 hours so we had candles and torches out, add into the mix a digital SLR and some boredom…

The call of “Beer’o’clock” came pretty early today, if only we […]

Read MoreWanted to have a crack at airbrushing some smoke for a while now, such a cool “fluid” element, although often a bit obnoxious in real life. What better format than on some fins? Nice and small, reducing the project timeline to an evening in the garage, perfect for my current state of mind – having […]
Read MoreDay: Thursday 22nd Jan 2009 Time: 6.45am Location: Fairhaven Vic Wind: Light offshore under Swell: 2 foot – then washing machine Conditions: Nice clean morning, tide a little too high making for some fatness. Banks are not ‘high tide’ friendly either, with sections quickly running into the easterly summer time trench. Nice to have some […]
Read MoreI caught 2 waves before the change hit.
Read MoreA really good friend of mine has a little surf brand OME, after seeing some of my airbrush work he said to me that I had to spray a display board for him. He said I could paint anything I wanted on it, I went for something classic and I think timeless, a perfect point […]
Read MoreA little raw and with a couple rouge closeouts hooking in and cleaning everyone up.
Read MoreI don’t use headphones a lot so they were just collecting dust.
Read MoreA weak and dying swell, with a light sea breeze.
Read MoreOnshore washing machine as the title suggests, moderate onshore wind with a tight wind-swell mixed in with some leftover ground swell.

Read MoreWell, talking to myself here no doubt, first post on a new blog and all that! Might as well get it out of the way and not crap on too much about nothing then. What am I doing here? Well I started to post some stuff over on our business site and it sort of […]
