I like this picture because it reminds me of 1 I did that was about the center of a tornado. To me I feel this is a replication of how a surfer might imagine how huge the waves are they are about to concur and barrel with hope's of not being ragdolled or wiping out, when in reality, they arent THAT big. The ratio is a little exaggerated but hey, this just shows how big our imaginations can get. The title says "a wave", but it's clearly a "set" of a couple smaller ones that this surfer is seconds away from duck diving into the way to get started. Surfers up!! Mahalo!!

Holy lanyard grease! At first look I thought this was a digital art work. Yet it is even better as a sharpie work of art. This shows a lot of action and drama. The details and colors are really well done. Great work Red Leg ~ Top

Quick: Bring me a can of muzzle blast and a box of grid squares!

Very creative. This huge wave captured by a surfer rolling or should I say surfing through. Good colour pallet, skillfully drawn and an excellent presentation.

Nice drawing here! Great details in the crashing wave. The person is well placed. Good depth in this composition. Nice reflected light in the water too. Thanks for sharing

WOW! Such a stunning 'whirlpool' looking work of art that you have superbly created. Your dramatic surfing action artwork is just in time to welcome the surfing competition that is a new Olympics sport entry- starting with the 2021 Tokyo Olympics Games. Look at that brave, daring, courageous silhouetted surfer still balancing tall on that surfboard and riding the vortex of waves.

BRAVO to your gifted artistic talent!!

I like how this artwork captures the essence of riding a beautiful wave, yet it also makes me think of the eye of the storm when viewing the teardrop behind the surfer. Good entry for the contest. Good luck!

Nice hang ten tubular wave Dude! I like the sense of movement along with the lone surfer looking so small inside this massive wave.
We don't get waves this big here unless there is a Hurricane.
Great entry... Best of luck :)

Again, beautiful demonstrative artwork. And, I love the film with its meaning and Underwood's beautiful voice and music I watched on YOUTube. So sad yet true. Such symbolism. Best wishes in the contest.
