It’s the first painting I’ve done that I can proudly call a masterpiece.  A lot of work went into it.  It incorporates Drew Brophy Sacred Geometry painting at Conscious Life Expo 2015 Artelements from Sacred Geometry and Unified Field Theory info that I’ve been studying and am passionate about.  The meaning goes deep, you can read about it here.

The mural is going to it’s new owner, Keen Footwear, on Monday.  Come see it before it goes!  (And, I’m giving FREE posters of the mural to everyone who attends.)

4 – NEW Sacred Geometry and Surf Art paintings – As I’ve been studying Unified Field Theory and physics, my art has been changing to reflect what I’m learning.  I’ll have some of the new art on display, and available to buy.

5 – Great conversation and a “tour” of my studio.  I’ll be glad to get to know you.

While you’re here, ask me about about Sacred Geometry Art and how drawing it helps one to connect to the Universe and transform their minds.  I’ll be stoked to share some of the new information I’ve been soaking up in my studies at the Resonance Academy.

During Drew’s 6 day WHAT IS SURFING Mural painting around town in San Clemente, he asked people to write down what surfing is to them.

Here are some of the answers people wrote:

WHAT IS SURFING?

Surfing = The closest you can get to heaven, flying between ocean & air.  Caitlin F. at Pier (she won our Day 1 Drawing)

Relaxes my mind, like Soul Cleansing.  Ken L at San O

Surfing is my passion (keeps me off the streets a& outta jail!) That’s been my motto since 14.  J.O. at the Pier

Surfing is losing yourself and being free.  In San Clemente, the most beautifully chilled place I’ve been.  Adam M.

Spiritual.  Aaron W. at the Pier

Surfing is Love.  Ryder W. at the Pier

San Clemente and surfing saved my life from the grip of addiction and a life in prison.  Since I moved here, I have become addicted to surfing, got a job, and have been clean for 6 months.  Surfing, God and my own will power saved my life.  Matt L at the Pier

Surfing is letting go of all the stuff that doesn’t matter in life.  Feeling the salt water and sun is a little slice of heaven.  No problems to worry about, just enjoy the moment mother nature provides.  It puts a whole new perspective on life and makes you appreciate what you have.  Dug C at San O

Surfing is freeing your spirit.  Eve J.

Surfing means a lot to me; my dad was pushing me into waves when I was four years old.  Surfing is my escape; I feel totally free when I’m in the water.  Logan M.

Surfing for me is my life, space and all that I am.  I’m over 50 now and everyone asks what keeps me young.  “Surfing!”  Chris E.

Surfing is the process of breathing in and out.  Surging, waning, pulsing.  It’s like life; it’s a grounding force that connects you with the rest of the planet when you are in the water.  Timeless and free.   Anonymous

final_flyer_surfriderThree years ago my family and I swore off plastic water bottles. We only use refillable bottles and take them everywhere we go. In 3 years we prevented 5,000+ plastic bottles from going into the landfills. So when Surfrider asked me to include my art in the WASTE-LESS “Rise Above Plastics” Art Show, I said YES!

I have three (3) original paintings in the show, and one canvas art print.

Saturday, September 6th, at DAX Gallery in Costa Mesa, CA. Hope to see you there!

Drew Brophy and the WD Fan Night Mural Painting CES2014“It’s important for me to be able to interact with every single person at an event.  I want them to leave feeling happy and with a lasting memory of what a great time they had.”  Drew Brophy

CASE STUDY:  Western Digital CES 2014 Fan Night Event

WHEN:  January 2014

CLIENT:  Western Digital (WD)

Mission:  Help make WD Fan Night event during CES2014 Las Vegas a memorable evening for WD’s special guests.

SCOPE OF PROJECT:

MURAL for Display:  Design, create and paint a Mural sized 10′ x 6′  (painted over 5 custom-made canvas pieces for ease of transport)

GIVEAWAY PROMOTIONAL ITEMS:  Drew Brophy Design was provided for WD t-shirts and posters to give away to guests at event

GIVEAWAY BIG TICKET ITEMS:  Strategiclaly design and then hand paint five (5) fine art pieces on skateboard decks.    The art design on the decks represented each of WD’s five hard drive products.   The decks were given away to five lucky winners at the event.

LIVE POSTER SIGNING:  Drew attended the event alongside other celebrities present, signed posters and presented the skate decks to each winner.

RESULTS:  WD Fan Night was a memorable event; dozens of guests took their photos in front of the mural and every guest happily took home a piece of art (poster) to always remind them of the evening.  WD was extremely pleased with the ease of the logistics to pull this off, and with the final outcome.

Mission Accomplished!

DETAILS:  Mural Artwork:  WD wanted a surf painting in Drew’s traditional style, with symbolism that was relevant to their products, which is hard drives.  Hard drives hold things that you want to keep forever.

Drew says of his design for the mural, “When I think of things that last forever, I think of ancient times and things that were made in stone.  In a way, hard drives hold information that is saved and passed down.  All of my art is saved on hard drives; it’s like my safety deposit box.  The art will be passed down to my son, and his kids as well.  So in this painting, the character is carving a WD in stone.”

Skateboard Deck Paintings: Drew created five paintings, meant to represent the features of each of WD’s hard drives; the explanation can be found in the name of the painting – see below:
