Art
Agave art|board
Last week I had a visit, as they passed through Melbourne on a board-delivery errand to the Victorian coast, from Paul and Sage Joske… Father and son, teacher and pupil, friends.
Making lines
I recently came across some gorgeous work from an artist who proves that you don’t have to be near the ocean to feel the stoke – meet the fabulous Collin Snyder, currently land-locked in Arizona.
Water technique
Painting in watercolour and riding a wave are activities connected within the same essence – making art with water. (Words by Luciano Burin – read this article in its original Portuguese on Luciano’s blog www.surfecult.blogspot.com)
S.M.A.S.H. @ Wallako
Wallako is a cool surf shop. And I mean cool in a good sense: it’s managed and tended by a nice crew of real surfers, and it specialises in beautifully handcrafted boards by some great shapers whose work was almost unavailable until now around here (DVS, Neal Purchase Jr., etc. ).
The pebble man
Some things come and go in life, and I often have cause to appreciate the importance of the “be here now” mind-state.
Those Bagus Days
After my planned trip to the longboard heaven of Costa Rica had to be aborted for various reasons, I found myself on a plane heading for Bali.
Rose Tinted
Halcyon days. Summer daze. Our rose-tinted paraphrase for that lustful glaze of memories, praise for a sun that - as the air’s chill picks at our bones - always felt hot, whether or not it shone.
Swim with me
Renowned American artist Julie Goldstein will be exhibiting from Friday, 4 September (7pm opening) to 4 October at the Escape Gallery in Bordeaux, France.
