Pier Pressure

This image is currently one of my best selling prints to date. I have sold this 24''x32'' print to adults and kids alike. One day during my last year of high school, my friend and I were going surfing before our last football game later that night. The surf was huge that afternoon when we spotted two guys jumping off The Wooden Pier in Va Beach, to get into the surf. We both looked at each other and said, "we gotta do that!" But what would our coaches do to us? we were co-captains, seniors and it was our last high school game. We sneaked through the fence on the pier, jumped off and caught just one wave and each had the best last game of our lives. Hence the inspiration for this painting
