Welcome and hello! I’m an artist and designer currently living and working in beautiful Ventura, California, and this is my nifty website. It’s an egotistical place where you’ll find most of my art, graphic design and illustration work. I’m pretty dependable with updating my blog… that’s where a lot of the action is these days. I’m saving up for a giant catamaran so I can break a bottle of cheap champagne on the bow and sail away into the sunset (Towards the wave filled South Pacific Ocean). So, if you fancy my work, be sure to check out the store and grab a painting or a print, or three… it will be much appreciated. I wish I could stay and chat a bit longer but there are lines to draw, waves to surf and food to eat. Cheers, Erik Abel
