DescriptionLaguna Beach’s Crescent Bay and its beach are favorite spots for locals, visitors and “body whompers” (a phrase locals use for those who body-surf giant waves that pitch directly into the sand). When the surf’s up, be careful – body-whomping should only be attempted by those who know what they’re doing! This beautiful oil by San Clemente-based American Impressionist John Cosby captures a perfect day at Crescent, with the aquatic show in progress. On View
