Inspired artwork with some positive daily reminders for the journey of life.

Everyday is a new day a new canvas to create one's dreams, visions and goals.

I like to get out in nature as often as possible and is a big part of my inspiration and staying balanced and grounded.  I'm looking forward to this new year and growing forward with new goals and new creativity.

I have been working with clients in the last couple of months sharing parts of what I have been doing for staying balanced from the inside out.  Most of which is centered around health and nutrition and a guided breathing balance sessions to name a few.  When your ready to take your health and fitness to the next level I am here to guide you on the journey.  Email cboards.com@gmail.com or 949-370-5807 to schedule a phone interview to see what I can help you with.  I look forward to hearing from you.

Some HowTo tips on painting abstract art on your next board or canvas.  Abstract art painting is a great way to open the mind and simply get the inspired creativity flowing.

In this video I'm finishing up a recently handshaped board and going into the painting process as you will see.   Remember to practice on canvas or paper anything to get familure with the paint before starting on the surfboard and only use acrylic water base paints on the surfboards or experiment first.

San Clemente Surfboards Art Review by Paul Carter

This is a fun all around board for nose riding and carving or cruising through the sections.   This board is a 7'11 and works great from 7 to 8fit range.  I build custom hand shaped surfboards for your dreams.

 I enjoy riding a 9 foot board but I wanted to change it up with a combination of a the best of a short and longboard something that I could still carve in the pocket and also hang five or 10 through the sections.   

I use the 325 and 350 future side bites depending on the size of waves,  with a 8 to 8.50-DD center fin and all the way back in the box which is set at 6.5,  the side boxes on this board are set at 18 to give it the single fin feel with the carving option when you want it.

The wedge stringer was an inspiration from a Renny Yater Surfboard I saw in the early 90s. 

I began incorporating the wedge stringer from 1995 to 2004 in many hand shaped surfboards.

So it came full circle this last year and I'm stoked to have the wedge stringer back again.  Join my instagram tribe from the link below.

A recently hand shaped surfboard down to the abstract painting.  Be sure to practice on canvas or wood to get a feel for what your after.  I use acrylic paint which is important for the foam and Glassing, oil paints will not work with Glassing.

Have fun with the process and don't be to critical on yourself.

San Clemente surfboards summer quiver

San Clemente surfboards pre summer quiver fresh cut and Handshaped and after painted with a abstract design to keep the sun reflection down in the water .

From right to left a 5'9 by 20.50 and 2.25 thick for small waves waist to shoulder high maybe head high.  I left the tail a bit fuller in a squash outline for more speed through the flat sections and a quicker release in and out of the pocket turns.

Next is a 5'11 by 20 by 2.3/8 with a bit more curve in the tail for smoother carving turns in the chest to a couple feet over head surf.  With 3 speed spots cruising or power turns.

New Handshapes by Paul Carter

The last board is a 6'4 by 19.75 by 2.3/8 this is for head to double overhead surf with a rounded tail to stick in the fuller waves and the hollow waves.

San Clemente Surfboards & Art

These boards have a relaxed rocker and a concave 3/4 concave bottom into flat to a slight vee to flat off the tail to maintain the speed through the turns.
