As Good a Spot as Any


SOLD
16x20
This summer I've been really lucky to time some good surf at Nags Head. Many times it takes some good 'ol highway surfing to find a spot with a decent break -  A pastime that, with the right vehicle, music, and attitude, can be just as much fun as surfing itself.  More often than not I've ended up right back in the line-up infront of the hill in this painting.
Yesterday, no highway surfing was required. A good ground swell had rolled in coupled with what was left from a prior Northeast wind swell. I paddled out with my nephews who are both 6 and a half feet tall. When I saw one take off on a peak that was several feet over his head, I knew that once again this was as good a spot as any.
