I wanted to show Christ on a surfing safari on some unknown planet or star that He Created. His is a world of colors and light and waves. And obviously He doesn't need a surfboard.
The image of Christ surfing has been rumbling around in my head for years. The first watercolor studies came in California in May 2017. The oils on paper were painted in the Virgin Islands in 2023. The culmination of the 3-D ideas in mixed media was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico at the present time. I applied the colors in such a way as to allow the elements of the colors chemical properties to interact with each other to create new shades and patterns all their own. And there is Christ surfing in the possibilities between order and chaos of what may become.
