On Canvas

There are places that refresh one’s soul, that wash the mind free of the illusions of past and future. The North Shore of Oahu is one of those places.

Hover above this idyllic scene… cleanse your mind, renew your spirit, and find yourself again in the beauty of this present moment…

The wide stretch of beach at Ke'Iki meets a gentle summer break, merging the raw, wild waters of the North Shore with a warm, sandy embrace.

You can almost feel yourself jumping into the backwash of those waves, diving down to touch the sandy sea bottom, at one with the wide Pacific Ocean…

The beach was empty for miles, a soft breeze blew and even the honu seemed to be napping amongst the corals, just peeking up every now and then to take a lazy breath… 

Bask in the clear, cool waters of Mokuleia on the North Shore of Oahu and feel the tension drop away…

Shamans call it dreaming when reality bends and reveals a different perception of the world. This image transports the mind to a place of freedom; freedom to choose how one interprets what is seen. A wave washing up on a sandy shore? Or an ochre colored mountain with clouds swirling around and through the peaks and valley, turquoise blue sky above?

Feel your mind expand, opening to a subtle shift between visions of mauka and makai, present in the same moment, between time and space...

The slanting sun brought the magic of golden hour to Lanikai Beach, palm shadows merging with the warm turquoise waters, the few remaining beach goers taking advantage of the open sand.

Make your own pau hana time by picturing yourself on this beach, contemplating your own lengthening shadow and burying your feet in the sand…

Through the mist, a tranquil sea.
The winds are still and a silken blanket of blue
gently falls across the ocean's pulsing heart. 

Slip into a place of softly flowing quiet, gliding along the bumps and hollows of a silken sea...

Beneath the surface, there is a place where rivers of light dance across the sand. A place where there is no sky and mirrored reflections merge into a horizon of expansive blue. 

Find your bliss floating in that clear space between worlds, weightless, without thought....

Classic Pipe! Blue skies, clean barrels rolling in, offshore winds creating a misty sprayback, no crowds in the line up. Time to grab my board! 

Stoke up your inner fire and feel the exquisite joy to be found in a transcendent moment of Pipeline perfection...

Immersed in the curl... watery glass above and blue-green satin below... it felt like infinity stretching out before me, the barrel cascading endlessly in a translucent path towards timelessness… 

Let your mind free in your own moment of Zen, now and forever in the same moment, gazing down the glassy curl of this Waimea Bay barrel...

Pulling into a thick, Eastside barrel at dawn is one of those epic life experiences that fills every bodysurfer’s dreams. The rising sun casts a golden glow that penetrates deep into the curl, creating a mirrored reflection of the new day.

Start your day in a liquid tube of sunlight, and experience the glow that carries on throughout the entire day…

Like ancient sentinels guarding the shore, five coconut palms held their fronds still on this windless afternoon. Behind them the clouds formed a backdrop of soft pink, signaling the approach of the setting sun, another tropical day coming to a peaceful close.

Take a slow, deep breath, inhaling the calm relaxation of palm trees against a watercolor sky…

I pulled up to the Sandys parking lot.  There was a quiet stillness in the air as lines rolled to the beach in a rhapsodic motif of sea and sand.  It was 5:45 am, and the light had yet to break through the clouds in the distance. I swam out into the twilight and as the sun dawned, one of the most in-sane double barrels I’ve ever captured filled my lens.

Bring the absolute epicness of a double barrel at Sandy Beach, Oahu into your home, work, or office.

As the sun slowly dipped towards the horizon, a solitary surfer was taking in the last warm rays of the day, gliding languidly above the rippling river of sand below.  

Gaze down at the soul-soothing view of a pau hana surf session, gliding through the deep turquoise waters of Waikiki...

There’s a powerful sense of joy that exists in the ever-changing beauty of each breaking wave… This wave, dropping its lip in a plunging waterfall of whitewater, fills me up with that joy, and a sublime reminder that each unique moment brings an experience of life that is fully complete in its wholeness. 

Come fully into the present moment, taking in the sheer elation that moment holds… before it passes on to the next moment in a waterfall of life, cascading within and around us in an endless progression of immediacy and presence…

The waves were firing on the Eastside as a giant swell ignited the Waianae Coast. Thick faces of 6 feet pounded towards the shore in a crescendo of tumbling whitewater, bringing the thunderous power of the open ocean rippling towards shore...

Rev up your spirit with the raw energy of a massive Hawaiian wave...
