Define Art Surf Art Painting of the Week - Free Desktop Wallpaper
Greetings Surf Art Lovers.
Here is your next painting of the week and free wallpaper.
"Cloudbreak" 12" x 20" Mixed Media on Panel by Nathan Gibbs
This was an experiment on size. Cloudbreak is an enormous wave in Fiji. This was one of two paintings where I painted very minute waves as if you were looking at them from far off. Just as if you see them in real life, they only look manageable when they are that big. Surfers can understand. Cloudbreak, Fiji....Using wood, stain, paper, toner transfers, sketches, found objects, paint, and a multitude of other sources turn the meta-physical into physical. These are originals only. I have not created a surf art prints series for this yet, as it is difficult to capture the way the materials work on the wood. "Surf art redux" it has been called. I want the viewer to increase their memories real or not, of favorite places they have been or want to go. Surfing trips I have been on have inspired this expressionistic Surf Art series. I hope you enjoy your tour into my traveled mind.
