Surfs Up
In the early days of my artistic journey, circa 2010, one piece stood out as a vibrant nod to freedom and adventure — the red VW Camper van with the surf rolling in behind. Painted in my signature style, bold brushstrokes and bright colours brought the scene to life, capturing that perfect moment where nostalgia meets endless possibility.
The van itself became the heart of the piece — a symbol of road trips, sunlit horizons, and carefree escapes. Its glossy red bodywork reflected the warmth of a setting sun, while the surf danced in the background, painted in deep blues and frothy whites. Subtle orange and pink hint at the dying light, adding a dreamlike quality to the whole composition.
This painting was a celebration of movement and stillness — the van poised for the next journey, while the waves carried on their timeless rhythm. Looking back, it feels like a defining piece in my creative evolution, blending fun, fantasy, and a little hint of wanderlust — themes that still ripple through my work today.
