Wood Art: The Captain 2015 Heather Brown Partner Chris Brown Bird's Wave Sunny Brown is a popular surf artist from California, based in Hawaii, known for her vibrant colors and powerful brushstrokes in her paintings of waves and ocean landscapes. This is a work by her husband. My husband purchased this during a trip to Hawaii in 2015. He displayed it for about six months, but then stored it away. He doesn't have any particular attachment to it and doesn't want it anymore, so I'm putting it up for sale.
