Mark Gabriel

A legendary figure in the world of action sports, Mark Gabriel has carved out an extraordinary life rooted in passion, performance, and purpose. A professional snowboarder and iconic surfer who rose to prominence during the Kelly Slater and Andy Irons era, Mark grew up surfing the iconic waves of Salt Creek in Dana Point, California.

As the founder of The Mint Fine Arts, a brand that began as an action sports apparel company, Mark has always blended creativity and athleticism. Today, his focus has evolved into something even more impactful: teaching children with disabilities how to surf, using the ocean as a tool to inspire confidence, resilience, and joy.

Now embracing his own creative journey as a fine artist, Mark is making waves in the art world with works that reflect his deep connection to the ocean and his adventurous spirit. With decades of experience as both an athlete and mentor, Mark continues to leave an indelible mark on his community through his art and his commitment to improving lives.
