THE PAINT WILL NEVER COME OFF
Other “copy cat” mediums wash off in the water.
But POSCA never washes off and is the #1 choice for a long-lasting painting on your surfboard (when you seal it properly).
Drew Brophy has been painting surfboards with POSCA for 30 years.
Drew developed a unique Posca painting technique that enabled him to paint faster and be more creative with his art on surfboards.
He used his surfboard painting skills to fund his surf trips around the world.
This led to him painting for the Hard Rock Casino and musicians such as Eddie Vedder, Blink 182 and Sublime with Rome, as well as companies like Google, IBM and Uber.
NOW, in this course, Drew is sharing his painting secrets with you.

WHY POSCA PAINT PENS ARE THE BEST MEDIUM TO PAINT SURFBOARDS
“Poscas are the easiest medium to quickly master painting skills.”
– Drew Brophy
Poscas are simply the BEST medium to paint on sand finish surfboards. They glide on easily, you can blend the colors beautifully and they last a very, very long time.
Poscas are easy to travel with; Drew Brophy has traveled the world painting surfboards with just one small bag of Poscas. They are low maintenance and take up very little space.
Poscas are easy to learn how to use. They are opaque, water-based paint pens.
Most paints have harsh smells and toxic chemicals and require brushes, jars and water. With Posca there is no need to buy anything extra.
Posca is non-toxic, leaves little mess, and the paint is contained in the pen.
Posca washes off your hands easily with soap and water. It’s the perfect medium!
F.A.Q.
Questions people ask before saying, “ sign me up!” to the HOW TO PAINT YOUR SURFBOARD ONLINE COURSE.
You’ll need the following items to get started:
For prepping and finishing your surfboard painting so the paint is protected forever: a clean dry rag, water (for the wet-sanding), a clear spray, 400 grit sandpaper and acetone. The brands and types of spray that Drew recommends are shared in the online course when you sign up.
For drawing and painting: an assortment of 14-16 colors of the Posca Paint Pens in 7M and black and white in a finer point (for detail), a sketch pad and pencil. (A complete list is given in the course).
SURFBOARDS: Posca paint pens work very well on traditional surfboards. They do not work on FOAM (foam surfboards or boogie boards). This course is meant to teach you how to use Poscas on sand finish and/or traditional surfboards.
No experience is needed! Drew will walk you through the steps starting with sketching an idea to finishing with the last bit of paint. We recommend that you practice on paper, wood or canvas first, before painting on your surfboard. BUT IF YOU MAKE A MISTAKE, DON’T WORRY, YOU CAN REMOVE THE PAINTING BEFORE IT IS SEALED.
*And if you want to learn the basics, check out our POSCA Beginner Course here: http://brophyartacademy.com/posca-beginner-course/
Drawing skills help, but are not necessary. You can learn how to sketch anything; and Drew will show you how.
Drew will walk you through an idea-generation process. Don’t worry - you’ll have more ideas than you know what to do with!
Posca paint pens have brilliant colors. They are the easiest, best way to have fun painting. They are non-toxic, easy to learn how to use and are water-based. They are also easy to transport, which means that you can paint anywhere, even on the beach, in a car and at a concert!
Yes, Poscas blend beautifully and easily! Drew will show you how to use his secret Posca color-blending techniques and his winning color combination blends.
If you remember to cap them right away, Posca paint pens last a very long time. You can paint ten to twenty surfboards (depending on how big the painting is) with a set of Posca Paint Pens. Overall, you get a lot more paint for your money with Poscas compared to other mediums. Poscas are an excellent value.
