Honored to be selected as the official event artist for the 2015 Luau & Legends of Surfing Invitational coming up later this summer on August 9. Every year a new artist is commissioned to create their own variation of the event location, Scripps Pier in La Jolla, CA. This incredible event has been running for 22 years to raise funds for UC San Diego’s Moores Cancer Center. Here is what I came up with for this year’s piece, proudly dedicated to my sister Heather recently lost to cancer.
