<\/span>SURF EXPO JAN 6-8, 2011 ORLANDO, FLORIDA<\/span><\/p>\n Surf Expo has been a big part of my art career for the past twenty years.<\/p>\n Every January the greatest show in Surf brings together surf companies and surf shops, girls in bikinis, stand up paddleboarders and professional surfers – everybody who is anybody in surf will be there.<\/span><\/p>\n I first went to Surf Expo as a kid<\/a><\/strong>, sneaking my way in with stolen passes to get a glimpse of all the cool stuff behind those big convention center doors. It wasn’t long before I was showing people my drawings and painting surfboards on the showroom floor.<\/p>\n NOW, I find it amazing that all these years later, I have a number of companies representing my art at the show.<\/p>\n The organizers at Surf Expo even asked me to design this show’s t-shirt, which was an honor for me to do.<\/p>\n This was another milestone, kind of like doing the artwork for the Pipemasters, that I’ve reached.<\/strong><\/p>\n I wanted to create something with a lot of movement that captured the excitement and energy of Surf Expo. \u00a0I painted what surfing is; \u00a0it’s really simple – sun and surf. \u00a0I named it\u00a0GALAXY WAVE and the original is painted on canvas. \u00a0I hand-drew the Surf Expo lettering separately.<\/p>\n The t-shirts will be available for purchase at Surf Expo only (sorry)! \u00a0I’ll be at Surf Expo to support my licensees and catch up with some old friends.<\/p>\n Also, I’ll be signing my VAHINE posters at the Hinano Tahiti booth on Friday. \u00a0(They’re free – come by and get one)<\/p>\n HERE’S A PARTIAL LIST OF EXHIBITORS THAT WILL BE SHOWING MY LICENSED PRODUCTS:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n HINANO TAHITI<\/span> <\/strong>Booth#346 Come by and pick up your FREE POSTER! \u00a0Hinano Tahiti had posters of my painting VAHINE printed and will be giving them away at Surf Expo.<\/p>\n I’ll be in the booth signing the posters on Friday from 2-4 p.m.<\/span><\/p>\n Hinano is using some of my artwork for their 2011 clothing line. \u00a0Read Island Inspiration and Hinano Tahiti<\/a> for the back story on my deal with Hinano apparel.<\/p>\n EASTERN SKATE SUPPLY<\/span><\/strong> (ESS) Booth#785 Will be showing my Palisades Skateboards line <\/a>and my Indo Board balance trainers.<\/p>\n COASTAL CLASSICS<\/span> <\/strong> (Streamline Design) Booth#2228 Click on\u00a0My art + your logo = awesome tees<\/a><\/span><\/strong> to see the newest designs available. \u00a0There are many of my name-drop t-shirt designs to choose from.<\/p>\n
