Collection of Jeanette BakerI painted Mavericks (watercolor, 5 x 7") in Napa today from an image off the computer of the big wave competition.
While Clay, Dee, Fran, and I were hiking with the dogs, we heard at least seven sirens from fire trucks and ambulances. Turns out a couple of rogue waves tossed a bunch of people off the sea wall and knocked over the judging stand (just beyond the sign that says "beware of rogue waves.")
It truly amazes me how many people swarm the neighborhood to try to see this event. From the shore, you cannot see anything! Just a dot on what looks like a little wave because the Maverick wave breaks so far out.
