So Cal Hoodies

Mega Matt!

A whimsical cartoon of San Diego, California – a surfer hangs ten, a Marine in a tank rolls forward, a killer whale leaps from the water, beach people pose proudly, zoo animals mug for the camera, a mermaid lounges on a rock while playful characters enjoy the warm California sun that shines high above it all. Hand drawn with paper, pens and a Wacom Cintiq using Photoshop CC 2020 and Illustrator CC 2020.

Sunrise Surf Sand Van, getting you to the beach and back in one piece. What you do on the waves is up to you. Since 1954

I moved to Los Angeles in 1999. I couldn't find a map of all of the neighborhoods of the city. I set about making my own -- exploring the vast county on foot and mass transit. Along the way, I drew maps with ink and painted them in watercolors and oil paint -- or some combination (including correction fluid). As a lefty converted to a righty, my handwriting is terrible and my maps are sometimes hard to read when reproduced or reprinted -- and so I've made these clean, digital versions for people who prefer that sort of thing.

Shit Pipe got its name from the Hyperion pipe that leads out to sea. The Hyperion plant is, yes, actually a sewage treatment center. Surfers are advised not to paddle out over the pipe, especially when waves are approaching, as the water sucks out forcefully, creating a daunting experience for those caught over it. A portion of proceeds will be donated to Surfrider Foundation. Protect the waves and beaches you love!

Secos at Leo Carrillo State Beach in CA is a captivating reef break that presents an enjoyable challenge for intermediate surfers. Leo Carrillo, known for its long waves, has a tight take-off area that can be a challenge when navigating through the crowds and Seco rock. Be prepared for the ebb and flow of the crowd, which can range from busy to ultra crowded, especially on weekends. A portion of proceeds will be donated to Surfrider Foundation. Protect the waves and beaches you love!

El Porto in Manhattan Beach, California, is a must-visit beach break that ranks among the best in the entire L.A. area. It’s a paradise for intermediate surfers, and the crowds are generally busy. This beach is a South Bay favorite, drawing surfers from near and far. The magic of El Porto lies in an underwater canyon that generates larger waves than neighboring beaches, resulting in consistently big swells when others are flat.
