San Clemente Art & Surfboards by Paul Carter

This painted surfboard is going to be a night scene with  a moon island and palm trees and of course waves.  I just finished putting on the first layers for the sky and the water. The board is 6'10 by 19.50 wide. All of the surfboards I paint are functional surfboards to be ridden. This is a commission for a cool guy in Oceanside. Stay tuned for the next photo as the painting comes to life. Thanks for all the support.

Spring cleaning is very important

Time to clean house mentally,spiritually and physically. If you have to much clutter in your house that is simply collecting dust it's time to donate or discard.  This is very important all they way down to saving negative texts or emails or letters etc.  If ones does not delete or discard negative text,emails,or things that are from the past, then one will be attached to them and will be carrying the extra weight mentally,spiritually and physically through life. Letting go is when life flows.The past is nothing more than the trail one leaves behind what drive are lives today is the energy one generates in each present thought in each moment.

Just a reminder to everyone that we manufacture our own surfboards which are shaped and made in the USA. Our prices are much lower the most stores because we manufacture our own surfboards. The only other store that is in the same ball park is Becker's. So if your wandering and wondering around looking for a board for you and your ability stop in and see what we have in stock or Paul will talk to you personally about what your after. We build functional surfboards for all levels of surfing and surfers.  Surfboards made by a surfer who surfs on everything.
