Southern California surf painting

I am fortunate that I live in a place where the water is warm enough for the average person to go out for a little surf romp. This is a beach where a novice surfer like me can get a few waves after all the  big surfers have gone home. Usually I would get stuck in the impact zone like this painting shows. Not to worry, the waves look scarier than the are and even less scary when I paint them later.
