I see Chris out at Swamis from time to time and happen to love how he connects shapes, flow and visual art… and I’m just talking about his surfing.
Great guy, talented artist and designer and nutty-good wave rider. Check out his quiver.

The work above is by LA graffiti artist Saber One. Like all of us, he’s processing the Gulf spill and its affect on this country. I view this as art in the same vein I view Jasper John’s legendary flag works. Similarly, this image attempts to capture a moment in this country’s history and uses [...]
Jack Johnson is always ready to connect to a meaningful cause. On Jack’s last world tour he helped us kick off the Rise Above Plastics campaign on multiple continents.
As you probably already know, Jack is touring again right now. His tour dates are here.
His tour is among my favorites as it’s hard to point to [...]
You probably know by now that I’m partial to the visual arts. And that I’m also keen on surfing. When these connect, it’s even better. But when those two connect with Surfrider Foundation I’m beyond stoked.
Aaron Chang and Wade Koniakowsky are artists with a waterman’s perspective. Over the years they have donated their fair share [...]
Donavon plugs into the local scene in Asbury Park… which means he taught kids to love the ocean. Good on ya Donnie the ocean needs all the supporters it can get.
Let’s start with the truism that it’s impossible to capture the multifaceted surfing lifestyle in a single image. That said, the photo below comes close. It’s an image Kevin Roche caught by swimming out to the peak at (I think) Seaside in southern Cardiff. The water-level point-of-view, the glassy water surface, the casual conversation, the [...]
Tristan Prettyman and Jason Mraz are no strangers to Surfrider Foundation. About a year ago, Tristan connected with our Barefoot Wine Beach Rescue Project and helped transform what some people would call work into what most people would call a party. Meanwhile, Jason has participated in our annual Celebrity Expression Session held in Malibu and [...]
The recent offshore drilling rollbacks (which we’re fighting) are engaging people from every walk of life.
Below are recent works from Sandow Birk and Elyse Pignolet. These monolithic sculptures were made with found objects from SoCal beaches (check the plastic dolphin beach toy in lower right photo). They have been shown in LA and Phoenix [...]
When I think of our oceans, waves and beaches my mind still… thank God… goes to thinking of all the joy I receive from them (as opposed to defaulting to the myriad of challenges they have).
It’s because of that category, the joy category, that images like the one above connect with me. This is Robert [...]
