The "Stay Bit" series of illustrations, prints and wood sculptures is an homage to all my saltwater rituals. The design series revolves around the culture behind a waterman. Watermen have skills in multiple aquatic sport disciplines such as surfing, fishing, kayaking, boating, bodysurfing, clamming, crabbing, and lobster fishing. These limited edition serigraphs honor the skills you achieve when you dedicate a lifetime passion to the ocean, bay and inner estuaries.
