Garry Birdsall's newest addition to his famous "Surfing in the 60's" series of artwork.
Boat Harbour or "Voodoo Point" as the local surfers call it is a south facing beach. Bordered by 150 metre high sandstone rock platforms and forms the southern side of the Kurnell Peninsula. The beach offers pristine waters for families with spectacular views of the entire Cronulla Beach coastline.
Garry was born in Sydney where surfing is a national pastime (in his words). He spent all his leisure time as a youth on the beaches surfing. He was one of the pioneers of Malibu surfboard riding. Garry’s surfing ability was so good that he competed in numerous Australian and world surfing events. He was the first artist in Australia to do airbrushed paintings on surfboards. Most of his life he’s worked in the surfing industry form board building to wholesale & retail sales.
Today, Garry paints in his Sydney based studio. He uses a variety of mixed media but mostly favours the technique he used in “Cronulla Point Going Off” which is a combination of opaque and translucent watercolours. He’s still out actively surfing and many of his painting are inspired by the magic of the ocean and his love of riding waves.
