Surf Art ; The Art of Clark Takashima

Surf Art Murals Sculpture

Original Acrylic Fine Art Surf Paintings  

 

Any artist can paint a picture from a picture, there are a lot more "surf artists" out there-since the mainstreaming of surfing has become, well, mainstream.  Clark has surfed for 25+ years and have traded in his boards for brushes.  Join Clark on his journey of his "surf art". "Although my art cannot compare to actually being there, I hope you find that it is a close second".   

    Slow it down and sit in the tube for hours on end, have the view of that perfect day, everyday... Please enjoy the chronicle of  Clark's mind's eye. Watch as his work climbs to its place among the greats of  yesterday and  today!

History has shown, when an artist's recognition grows, so does the prices of the works. Many people are buying his work for its accuracy and to watch the phenomenon of an artist's rise in popularity, most, like Rusty Priesendorfer, says, "It just makes me smile". (Woo-Tagh!, is hanging in his office in California). Soon after winning his second ASP WQS Pipeline Pro contest in 2006, Jamie O'Brien acquired "Chiii-Hu", a 24" x 48" original.  Tow-in surfer, long-time North Shore resident, Troy Alotis is an avid collector of Clark's work. He feels Clark is "getting better with each year" and is taking advantage of collecting Clark's work in its rise to the likes of a Lassen or Wyland.
