Surfing and art have always been inseparable for me, and it's no wonder that waves and fun-loving UFOs keep showing up in my work. There's something about the flow of the ocean and the idea of these playful, otherworldly beings cruising through the cosmos that just clicks. It's like capturing that perfect wave – a blend of exhilaration and peace. Drawing these scenes feels like tapping into the same energy I get from being out on the water, where the coast’s endless horizon stretches out in front of me.
When I'm on the coast, whether it's catching waves or simply soaking in the ocean's vibe, I feel a connection to something bigger than myself. Surfing isn't just a sport; it's an art form in its own right. It's about balance, timing, and creativity – the same things that go into making art. Just like you have to read the ocean to find the best wave, I try to read my own creative currents to see where my imagination takes me. Sometimes that means drawing waves, other times it's about bringing in those UFOs, adding a bit of cosmic fun to the mix.
The coast, with its raw beauty and ever-changing moods, serves as a constant source of inspiration. The waves here aren't always perfect, but that's part of the charm. Each one is different, just like each piece of art I create. The coast teaches you to go with the flow, to adapt and find beauty in the unexpected. That’s what I try to capture in my drawings – that sense of freedom and spontaneity that comes from being open to whatever the ocean (or the universe) throws your way.
In a way, surfing and drawing are both about chasing a feeling. When I'm out on the water, it's that moment when you’re in sync with the wave, riding it effortlessly. In art, it’s when a piece starts to come together, when the lines, colors, and ideas all start to align. The UFOs I draw represent that playful, exploratory spirit – If they’re out there, they are cruising the star systems, just like surfers on a wave. It's about enjoying the ride, wherever it may take you.
Ultimately, my art is a reflection of my love for the ocean, the joy of surfing, and the thrill of letting my imagination run wild. The waves and UFOs might seem like an odd combo to some, but for me, they represent the perfect blend of earthly and cosmic adventures. Whether I’m sketching a gnarly wave or a cheeky alien catching some cosmic rays, it's all about embracing the fun, the unknown, and the endless possibilities that both art and the coast offer.
