Biggies
I wanted to show you all what my studio looks like. Notice the computers in the background, That's where I do all my graphic and video work. This painting was done for my West Coast friend Jeff Chamberlain. It's called Biggies. And this place is magical. Jeff and his friends live for this spot.

Grinding Barrel
I used to go by the name Vince, in fact, some still call me Vince. It's also my son's middle name.
I liked painting this one...it was a different feel for me. If I could only get a photo like this.

Dream Waves
In my mind this place exists. I'm sure it's a combination of spots that I've seen over the years. When I painted this painting it was a fantasy spot. But I know it's real enough for someone to want to go seeking it out. Do me a favor, if you find it, let me know. I'd love to spend some time there..

Green Peak
I liked the fact that this is a painting of a wave that has yet to heave and barrel. But any self respecting surfer will agree...this baby's gonna get hollow. The dark forboding skies added to the heaviness of this spot.

Drive Thru
I guess it was just a matter of time before I did a painting with this perspective. Looking through the opening.

September Wave
I painted this wave after one of those fine September swells. It was quite inspiring.

Leftovers
Hard to decide which I enjoy painting more...Rights or Lefts? I guess I like them both the same.

Ralph's Pic Of The Week Wave
Clearly, you must recognize this wave? Look closely...where have you seen this before? Believe it or not, the actual size of this painting is 8' x 5'...it's hanging in my Living room.

Ralph's Other Studio...My Garage
Sometimes you gotta move the vehicle to make room for the art studio...this was a monster job.
It was actually two parts that we ended up bolting together. I have no idea where this bad boy is today.

Gromboarder
Back to my Griffin roots. It was fun to doodle again.

Mr Please-Be
I called this guy the "Worry Wart of the world. If you had any worries he would place it on his coat and
worry for you. Don't ask...
