Ithaka Darin Pappas, november, 2006.

I took this photo some days after I met Ithaka. Very nice guy, artist, surfer, musician...

Thyola in his factory. The biggest surf factory in South America.

I spent some time here when i was a kid, cutting fins for some money, and this place brings to me plenty of memories.

Thyola is the best glasser from Brasil and one of the best around the world.

Jair by MaiBritt Wolthers 2008

Today I got a really nice surprise.
MaiBritt Wolthers is a Danish lady that lives in Brasil.
She’s a painter and she was part of my book, Alma Santista.
On the cocktail release she took a bunch of photos of me, while I was signing the books and greeting people and friends.
Today she called me and said that she did a piece about me and she wants to give it to me…

Here it is and check her website http://maibrittwolthers.com/.

Book review kindly wrote by Adriano Vasconcellos, editor of Alma Surf Magazine from Brasil.
The book released in june last year and it's about the surf and beach culture from the city of Santos, in the south coast of Sao Paulo. The surf started in Brasil in this city on the 30's.
Drift Magazine put this review up on their forth issue.

Thanks Adriano!
