That’s, ahh… that’s a surfboard all right! A series of surfboards actually, designed by Matt dubbya Moore, founder of MWM Graphics, a design and illustration studio based in Portland, Maine. These boards might not fly with Warchild but we still think they are pretty radical and would get Johnny Utah’s stamp of approval. They are certainly an upgrade from that ’57 chevy sled he was sweet on. Even Rick Kane might make Chandler proud with one of these designs, Barney. It’s like Barno… Barnyard… a haole to the max, a kook in and out of the water. Yeah? MWM recently collaborated with ALMOND surfboards and the CORDUROY gallery to create this unique series of  Almond Lumberjack Long Surfboards that feature WMW’s own signature retro design. The perfect fusion of form meets function.  Matt works across disciplines, from colorful digital illustrations in his signature “Vectorfunk” style, to free form watercolor paintings, to massive aerosol murals and more functional art like hand-painted bike frames, tees and cycling caps.  These boards will make their maiden voyage at  CONVERGENCE, a collaborative painting series by: Kate Cleaves and Matt W. Moore , on September 4th at 6:00 pm at the Corduroy Gallery,59 Market Street, Portland, ME. Surfing’s the source man… swear to God. Stay loose, haole.
