This was a "live" surfboard painting commissioned for the Computa Center office in Irvine, CA. For their new office grand opening, the company wanted me to create the painting while the festivities went on around me. The office is has a cool CA surf vibe on the interior and this board made a good addition to the lobby.

This is a super close up crop of an actual beetle painting. Kinda looks tribal. Painted on a used surfboard.

PROFILE
A Creative Mind
Dwight has been creating pieces of art from an early age and these days are no exception. He loves working with his hands to create one-of-a-kind pieces of artwork on a multitude of surfaces and with various mediums. From watercolor and acrylic on canvas to objects made with wood and other found materials including surfboards, he is always thinking about his next piece of art.
Dwight spent most of his youth in North Carolina. He went to East Carolina University, getting a BFA degree in Communication Arts and a minor in illustration and painting.
After college, Dwight moved to the Washington D.C. area for work at several advertising/marketing agencies. While there, he met his future wife Laurie. Dwight and his family with two grown children now reside in South Orange County, California where he continues to hone his skills as a designer and artist.
