Big Wednesday

“Big Wednesday”, oil on canvas, two panels, @ 48″ x 120″, 1993.
This painting shows a cyclone swell at Manly in 1993. The swell came up from dead flat at dawn to 12-15′ by lunchtime. The only surfable spots on the northern beaches were Fairy Bower, the Queenscliff bommie, North Narra, North Av and South Palmy. This was before tow-surfing was invented.
The best part of this painting is the loving depiction of my trusty FZ750 at bottom left 😉
Contact Grant Forbes at Tigerfish in Torquay for details.

  3. Love that painting mate. Is there a larger image anywhere we can get a better look at?

    Done any giclee or poster prints of that image? Love it!

  4. Hi Murray,
    Thanx for your comments. No larger images available atm, the ones I have are a little blurry 🙁
    I got your email and I will let you know if we get some prints organised. The painting is 2000km away from me right now…
    Thanks again

    Hugs from the iberian land!

  6. Hi Norval,

    Amazing job!

    Have you done any printing of this image? I would be very interested in getting one, as well as one of the Storms over the Superbank.

    Cheers
