Is that a dude surfing on some pizza? Thank you, Michelle Devereux

Surfing is pretty cool, but swap the board for a pizza and it becomes awesome. These coloured pencil drawings mixed with airbrush are works from artist/musician Michelle Devereux. Not only are these dudes surfing on my favourite kind of pizza, the backgrounds are comical too, especially those inflatable stick things that wobble about all silly. I wouldn’t be surprised if next time you were in California you saw a group of dudes running towards the beach with a large slice of pizza in their hands. You heard it here first.
