Jeff Canham

Posted on November 15, 2007 Under Art

Jeff Canham is a man of the surf and sand. Hailing from Hawaii, he has never been far from the placid waters of the Pacific. A frequent reader of Surfer Magazine growing up, he would later move to Orange County to serve as the publications art director. Canham has since relocated to San Francisco where the surfing’s a plenty and where he has more than enough of time to focus on making signs for his day job at the New Bohemia Sign Shop.

When he’s not hard at work designing standout signs for shops around town"¦he’s out hanging ten on the surf and when he’s not doing that he manages to work on his own brand of eye catching canvases that give a nod towards his experience catching waves. Keeping himself constantly immersed in the ways of the wave rider has no doubt influenced Canham’s aesthetic, as many of his creations are covered in terms and nautical images related to surf conditions. Hanging his astounding work in your home might just give you a taste of the West Coast in your home…but it may make you hesitant to brave the choppy waters of your own bathtub.
