San Francisco, California Oct 6, 2025 (Issuewire.com) - Easton Cain Keeps It Real with Upcoming 2026 Exhibition “Parabolic” — Even After a Surf Injury
Bay Area painter Easton Cain isn’t slowing down — even after a surfing wipeout that left him with a bruised painting hand. The 27-year-old artist laughs it off: “Yeah, I’m clumsy. It’s a minor setback, not a tragic origin story.”
Cain is currently halfway through thirteen new large-scale oil paintings for his 2026 exhibition, Parabolic. That single word is all he’s giving away for now. He says he enjoys watching people guess what it means: “Everyone wants answers. I like giving them a question instead.”
His collectors describe the work as cinematic and emotionally raw — somewhere between American Regionalism and a dream sequence. Cain’s paintings of everyday life in the Bay Area often feel mythic but grounded, like something you’d see if Thomas Hart Benton lived near Ocean Beach.
While his hand heals, Cain’s back in the studio sketching, mixing color, and finishing compositions for Parabolic, which will debut in January 2026.
