Another surfboard image for Open Studios 2007

Surfboard at 2007 South End Open Studios

At this year's open studios, I will be showing a set of three surfboards and related drawings and paintings. These boards are my investigation into adapting my visual goals onto functional surfboards. This includes both the painted images and the composition of the core, using recycled materials alongside the latest technology. This is the first output of my drawing and sculpture in the context of my life as a surfer in New England.

See USEA for details on the 2007 Open Studios in Boston's South End.

Stubby Red Single Fin ...

Set the fin box, sand, polish. Soon to eat up all the waves at some crappy break just N of Boston (no, that's not the fin you would use -- it just looks hot).

Assemblage ...

Bookends of assemblage from found materials. The sources are the Outer Beach and Plum Island, MA. Also, the surf report: small waves on Saturday, 2/3/07. As with every swell this winter, it was gone by noon. Flat all this week.

January Surf Report

Despite spring weather, surf has been very flat (maybe four days above 1'). It's a good time to get some board building done. 6'2" x 22" x 3", single fin, 50/50 rails.
