Artist and waterman Hilton Alves has long been a lover of the sea and water sports. Born in 1980 and raised in Guaruja, in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Hilton began painting professionally in June, 2000. His passion led him to express the magnificent beauty of the aquatic world in paintings, big murals and drawings. The artist brought his art to a higher realm in 2004 when he began painting murals. His murals convey the awe of the ocean and bring viewers closer to the earth's perfect waves and precious marine life. Working out of his art studio in the beautiful Kahuku town, on Oahu's North Shore, Hilton is constantly driven to create new and beautiful paintings. When he isn't painting, he lets the love of sports, such as surfing, stand up paddle surf, bodysurfing, bodyboarding, swimming, soccer and mountain biking be an inspirational source for guiding paint onto canvas and murals.
