I imagine that the person who commissioned this painting from you was thrilled! I had forgotten about Woodies, what a dreamy car from the past and you have brought them to life once again in your art.
Barbara Moak replied:
Thank you, Anne. Dan, the first guy from the right commissioned the work and then he bought a print for the wife of one of the other surfers who had passed. Dan, also sent me a picture framed and hung in his den. I am always thrilled when people do that. It's such an honor.
Bonnie Mason
Fantastic! Brings back memories...

Thank you, Bonnie for the nice comment. The young man (to the right) was a friend in college, and we are still friends 58 years later.

Love this. I can really relate to this as I was an avid surfer in Virginia Beach, Virginia in the 1960's.Brings back fond memories of those times.
Barbara Moak replied:
I can relate, Dan who commissioned the painting was a friend and my skydiving instructor in college. He tried to teach me to surf but I guess I was not coordinated enough because I could never stand upright on the board! LOL
