Meet The Artists

Inspired by their mutual love for the ocean and surfing, husband/wife Mark and Cathy have found a way to pass a piece of their passion onto surfboards that have also spent a lot o time in the water. 


Mark and Cathy are Southern California (Oceanside) residents, and met while surfing. They soon discovered not only their common interest in the sport, but also their appreciation for the beauty of the ocean - from the reflection of the sun shining on the water to the grey clouds creating a quiet peacefulness while sitting on their boards. Glass represents water, so what better way to recapture a moment of this mesmerizing world than by putting it back onto a surfboard?


So, rather than starting small and working big, they started HUGE (retired surfboards as their canvases), and gradually worked to smaller projects (skimboards, skateboards, and much more!) Every piece, whether big or small, is made with pride and precision.
