Dive deep into a conversation that seamlessly merges the vibrant world of art with the rhythmic flow of surf culture. 

Robb Havassy is a masterful fine artist, author, and surfer as well as a long-time personal friend. 

Jay Alders and Robb warmly touch upon their mutually felt kinship and you can hear their sincerity and inspirational natures as they discuss the profound purpose and meaning of art, touching on themes that resonate with anyone who's ever picked up a brush or ridden a wave. 

Amidst the stories of painting and paddling, Robb and host Jay Alders dig into the challenges and rewards of balancing life's many roles, especially the profound responsibility and joy of fatherhood.

Both Robb and Jay share an insatiable urge to constantly push boundaries, emphasizing the freedom they find in not being pigeonholed as mere "surf artists." Their shared passion extends beyond the canvas and the coastline, exploring the sheer pleasure of creation and the deep intuition that drives them. 

While their journey as artists hasn't always been smooth sailing, the pull towards their craft is something they can't imagine living without, no matter how challenging the seas might get.

For the artists tuning in, find solace in their tales and perhaps even some answers to the very questions that keep you up at night. And for the art enthusiasts and surfers, this is a chance to paddle out into the minds of two creators, witnessing firsthand the inspiration that rides in on every wave and brushstroke. Join us, and let's celebrate the love, beauty, and sheer joy embedded in both surf culture and the world of art.
