Shane is also sponsored by Billabong wetsuits. His work is based on his experiences as a surfer, his time spent in the elements fuels his subconscious. “my work is about the nature of water and human emotional interaction with water”. His work is already part of collections in the UK, France, Holland and the United States. He has had several profile pieces in national magazines.
