Reid's Point Break Fantasy

My good friend Chris Reid said he had too many white walls in his Leucadia pad so he asked if I could help him out with a little visual stimulation. This was about a year ago; fast forward to 2 months ago and Reid is on the cusp of turning the big "30". Life and other obligations had gotten in the way so I finally stepped it up, put on the painter's cap, and came up with this "other worldly" piece. I think it turned out quite nice. It makes me want to insert myself into one of these heaving freight train lefts. Reid (I call him by his last name...) hung this on the wall space above his flat screen t.v. and says he often gets distracted by visions of perfect lefts marching on by. I'm glad he likes it and expect he'll have many years of mind surfing this perfect wave ahead of him!
