Just came home from a pretty disasterous day at work to find a parcel on the sideboard...............all Christmas presents recieved and accounted for so I am truely puzzeled! ........Wondering if maybe I had forgotten something in a wine induced ebay haze. Purchase panic sets in.
To my suprise when I opened it, I discover that it's a suprise Christmas present from my brother in Oz. Relief and warm heartedness come over me all at once.
It's a fabulous book, filled with all sorts of great surf, snow and skate art. In fact just about anything that you can do on a board as well as bios of the artists. I am truely touched - even more so as I have been such a shit, nagging about him never writing or sending postcards and the like. I am stunned and amazed at his thoughtfullness and feel even more crap for having only sent him a poxy card for Christmas. Guess this means I owe him that new fish his been gunning for even more. Little brother done good!
Amazing book. Fantastic images. Get yourself a copy to adorn your coffee table.
I now feel totally re-inspired, full of love and it's turned my day right around. Christmas drinks here we come!

Surf Art

Roaming the net, as you do and came across the work of Newquay artist Melanie McDonald, who's work I have been admiring and now added to my aspiration list.
Although she now lives in Brittany, it is clear in her work that she is still very much inspired by life along the Cornish Coast.
Check out her work at www.melaniemcdonald.co.uk/
