joe curren surfing rincon yesterday. it was small but fun… and joe with his fluid style was lighting it up.

i was dropping off some film today at the lab, and discovered i had some photos ready to be picked up that i had forgotten about. what a wonderful surprise. the shot of timmy above is one of my favorites.

i just received the poster for the rob machado surf experience and green expo and i am stoked! they ended up using one of my portraits of rob and they chose an amazing surf shot taken by my good friend todd glaser (click here to check out todd’s work). the poster artwork was done by seitaku aoyama of studio aiuto. click on the image above for a larger view!

i’m back from hawaii – it was a great trip. today my sister-in-law sent me these photos and i am ecstatic! as you can see, i had the chance to take my oldest daughter annika surfing – it was a dream come true. we even practiced a few stunts…  it was an absolute blast!!

and here’s a couple more photos of some beach fun. if you look closely you can see that the kids had a lot of fun getting buried, and burying me, in the sand.

tom curren decided to play some tunes at his ripcurl shop on friday. i swung by to hang out for a bit. tom is one of a few, who actually are, true artists/surfers. he is a thinker. he is a great dad. he is a traveler. he is creative. he is someone who charts his own course. and he happens to be one of the most influential surfers of all time. yet, tom doesn’t let that get in his way. he is authentic and soulful through and through. click on the play button below to listen to a sample of tom’s fluid and freeform musical style. i recorded this on fri in the shop (while the recording quality isn’t great, it’s definitely worth checking out).

joe curren is someone i admire deeply: an artist, writer, thinker, traveler, and super talented surfer.
