ENTRY DESCRIPTION
A solitary figure stands at the edge of the world, surfboard in hand, facing the rising moon that looms like a second sun. Light and shadow stretch across the water in restless motion, a reminder of nature’s vast, untamed power. In this dreamlike meeting of sea and sky, man becomes both challenger and witness—small against the infinite, yet drawn irresistibly toward it.

AUTHOR
Christina Ford is an artist drawn to the vivid beauty of the world and the sense of wonder it inspires. Having spent her life near the ocean—from Micronesia and Saudi Arabia to both coasts of the United States—she has been shaped by travel, culture, and the breathtaking places she’s called home.

For the past 30 years, Christina has lived in the Santa Cruz area, where the dramatic landscapes of Northern California continue to captivate her imagination. Nature remains her greatest muse, fueling her photography and mixed-media work. In addition to photography, she explores creative expressions that evoke stained glass effect, decoupage textures, and abstract compositions rich with color, movement, and light.
