SUMMER WHITEOUT

A Rare Noon-Hour Barrel, Captured in Full Glow

“Summer Whiteout” is a luminous, limited-edition installation that captures the ocean’s brightest expression. Shot at high noon on the north side of Wrightsville Beach’s iconic Crystal Pier, this moment is bathed in pure overhead light—illuminating the water into a rare harmony of radiant whites and soft coastal blues. The result is a wave that glows with joy.

Seen from deep inside the barrel, the viewer is placed in the surfer’s sacred perspective—looking south toward the pier, with the wave breaking over your head in a moment frozen between force and serenity. The naturally occurring whiteout effect is extremely rare, making this piece not only visually arresting but nearly impossible to recreate.

Craftsmanship That Elevates the Ocean

This Limited Original is printed on high-vivid HD aluminum, then layered with a proprietary 3D Water Texture resin technique. The result is a physical depth that merges with the wave’s natural lightplay—bringing the viewer into the water, not just in front of it. Glassy surfaces, embedded highlights, and fine detail combine into a pseudo-realistic viewing experience, one that shifts with lighting and draws attention in any space.

Framed in a custom-crafted gold-leaf wooden frame with a subtle brushed texture, the piece is housed in a structure that complements its rare glow—timeless, elegant, and built to last.

Own a Moment of Light, Water, and Place

This is more than a wave—it’s a bright memory of summer, made permanent. “Summer Whiteout” invites collectors to hold one of the rarest optical moments in coastal photography. From the artist’s lens to your wall, it offers both emotional lightness and immersive realism, grounded in a real place and time.
