Brown Cannon is a professional photographer who likes to put his water photos on surfboards an then show them in galleries, according to a story in the Marin Journal.
Cannon’s images of whales and waves and water, of sea life and coastal environments – “the full scope of a person’s relationship to the ocean” – adorn classic surfboards that are both fine art and functional – sculpture that you can actually surf on. . . He has been creating these custom boards for two years now in collaboration with GP Surfboards, a company in Capitola near the rideable waves of Santa Cruz.
Currently Browns work appears to be on display at two locations (Richardson Bay Audubon Cetner in Tiburon, CA and Casa Romantica in San Clemente, CA) with a third at The Bolinas Museum going up on May 20, 2009.
