The Bud Birds series is inspired by diversity in everything and enjoying exactly what sprouts up. Bud Birds at Mavericks reminds us to live life to the fullest and go after our dreams. Mavericks waves are huge 30 feet + waves that occur off the coast of California each year. These unlikely big wave surfers have found a surf board and are delighting in the experience. Bud Birds are birds that sprout from flower stems. Each bird starts out as a flower bud full of potential and hope, brimming with positive energy. Through the flower growth process something unexpected happens. Acrylic on canvas.
