011 - Pepa Ivanoff: Artist - Surfer - Traveler

This episode we welcome Pepa Ivanoff to The Surf Strong Show here’s a description of who she is and what she does in her own words

“My name is Pepa, and I am an Australian born, Central America based Artist, Surfer and Traveler.

I have over 20 years of international experience creating digital and analog art. 

My artwork is both inspired by, and a result of, my nomadic surfer lifestyle. 

I have chosen a life less ordinary in pursuit of my creative passion and I want to inspire others to curate a life that is a work of art.

My Art and my Life is a constant and evolving exploration of travel, culture, nature, design, surfing, photography, tarot, colour, textures, textiles, taoism, and all things tropical.

I have painted 302 Murals in 8 countries, and I love to combine traditional analog art with digital techniques, and in doing so have created my unique style.”

We have a fun conversation of her growing up on the Gold Coast of Australia, moving to California in her early 20’s to advance a career in graphic arts, her decision to move to Costa Rica full time after 8 years in California, and how that opened the doors to becoming the mural artist and nomadic creative that she is today.
