5 More from Bob's Tribal Surf Art Series 2011

Yesterday, I shared 5 of the 10 original acrylic paintings from Bob's Tribal Surf Art Series.. 

Today, I will be sharing the other 5!

Most of these paintings hang in the Calypso Bar & Grill, here in Virginia Beach, on 11th St. and Atlantic, down at the Oceanfront..

If you are ever in the neighborhood, you should go and check them out!


1. "Throwin' Spray", this abstract surf painting captures the energy of hard cranking, snap off the lip of the wave.

2. "Lip Glide", this abstract surf painting reflects the feeling of a lip glide, trimming the top of the wave- fast and clean. 

3. "Sunset Glide", this abstract surf painting reflects the peaceful yet energetic vibe of a West Coast evening glass off of the waves. 

4. "Jade Pipe", this surf painting is an abstract representation of Gerry Lopez, a famous Hawaiian surfer, at Pipe, relaxed bottom turn in a huge overhead barrel of a wave. 

5. "Peace on the Nose", this abstract surf painting captures the feeling of a peaceful, smooth, mellow nose ride on a wave somewhere in the tropics. 

Hope that you enjoyed the tribal surf art of artist Bob Langston!

All of these psychedelic surf art originals are sold as prints on our Etsy store, ArtByLangston.

Bob's Tribal Surf Art Series from 2011

As a surfer, surf art is just a natural extension of Bob's creative mind..

Abstract is one of Bob's favorite forms of art as well..

So he came up with this style of tribal surf art and went with it! All are original paintings, acrylic on canvas.

The following are 5 out of the 10 original paintings (all originals have been sold but are now sold in print form on ArtByLangston) from Bob's Tribal Surf Art Series that he created back in 2011...


1. "Cheater 5"; Our Feature Print for today on ArtByLangston, this abstract surf painting captures the stoke of "hanging five, toes over the nose" of the surfboard while riding a wave. 

2. "Lopez at Pipeline", this abstract surf painting is a loose abstract representation of Gerry Lopez, also known as Mr. Pipeline, in a casual stance at Pipeline in Hawaii. 

3. "Dawn Soul", this abstract surf painting captures the freedom of an expressive soulful nose ride while surfing an early morning East Coast wave. 

4. "Sunrise Barrel", this abstract surf painting reflects the feeling of catching a deep barrel ride at the crack of dawn on an east coast wave. 

5. "Emergence", this abstract surf painting captures the feel of a deep overhead barrel of a wave - emergence into the light.

There are the 5 for today. Stay tuned for 5 more tomorrow!

Hope that everyone has a happy and prosperous new year!!

Print of the Day, Today and Yesterday, From ArtByLangston

Every day we feature a print of the day on our ArtByLangston Facebook page. 

Today our Print of the Day is "Sunrise Barrel", one of the ten paintings from Bob's "Tribal Surf" Series from 2011. This abstract surf painting reflects the feeling of catching a deep barrel ride at the crack of dawn on an east coast wave. This original ocean painting is acrylic on canvas. Print signed by the artist.

Yesterday, we also had a Print of the Day that I was unable to post. Print of the Day: "Jimmie Crabs". The original painting was done by commission from a friend who loves to crab on the bay here in Virginia Beach. Bob also has a love of crabbing and the ocean/bay, so he was excited when asked to paint this blue crab painting, acrylic on canvas. 

So come on over to ArtByLangston on Etsy and check out our featured prints and the other psychedelic surf and beach art prints in our shop.
