Dave Hobrecht's original charcoal and pastel painting of surfing legend Peter Townend, titled "Soul Arch."
Another in Dave's series of surf paintings created for the 2009 surf movie "Bustin' Down the Door," this piece portrays Townend, who was recognized as the very first surfing world champion, when surfing was just being recognized internationally as a mainstream sport. Dave depicts Townend at Sunset Beach performing his signature move, the Soul Arch, from which the painting gets its title.
Dave spent much of his youth riding the waves of his hometown, Huntington Beach, California, also known as Surf City USA. He started his career as a professional artist as Editorial Cartoonist for Surfer Magazine.
