Jay collaborated with close friend and talented musician Gabe Gomez to create this coastal work of art. The sketches that ensued were destined to grace the cover of the upcoming Gomez album titled, “In my Island” due out in early September 2012. Alders describes his inspiration for the painting, “There is a place within that soothes and challenges every artist and musician at the core of our souls. Gabe refers to this as his island. This tranquil cove by the sea, is my rendition of that spiritual haven, where we go to create and just be.” Jay is thrilled to be a part of this project with Gabe and proud to see his talented singer-songwriter compadre share his acoustic music with the world.
Introducing “Moonlight Glide”, a new painting by Fine Artist Jay Alders which pays homage to his longtime love of snowboarding. “I started carving mountains when I was 16 or 17 years old. It wasn’t the cool or hip thing to do then. Quite the contrary, most ski slopes didn’t even allow snowboarding.”, Alders says. Known for warm season surf inspired pieces, this is a new turn for the artist. But despite the subject matter shift, the composition and elongated reality felt in this piece are still characteristically an Alders work. The artist says that being back home with the winter approaching and crispness in the air has him frothing for some powder. The symmetry between graphic elements and more painterly brush strokes gives this painting a soothing visual balance. The spiraling vortex of trippy water-like clouds are quite reminiscent of an ocean wave curling over the snowboarder below.
This original painting, “Wading For the Sun” is a classic Jay Alders surf painting. The warm summer sun, waves peeling, the mesmerizing light reverberating through the ever-changing forms of the ocean and the sight of a beautiful surfer girl wading towards the sea.

This new original piece of artwork is the first in a series of paintings which artist, Jay Alders takes his subject matter, technical approach and artistic style to a whole new level. “A Bird’s High View” was created on a 48 inch by 14 inch oak panel and at first sight one can see an exquisite combination of stylized linear composition and a barrage of beautiful earth tones. This tranquil scene gives us a peaceful yet powerful view which just pulls you in at first sight. “Many months ago during the middle of the summer, I was in bed sketching when a series of beautifully inspiring images rushed through my being. I had been thinking of fond memories from high above on the hills in Costa Rica, Hawaii and Brazil overlooking the tropical waters and trees below. I love watching birds soar imagining what it must feel like. I really wanted to push my style into a more stylized paradigm and try and capture that feeling with this piece.”
