“Blew By You” Pastel framed and hanging at @mauihands gallery along with some others I just delivered. This pastel original is one from my abstract collection. I enjoyed the process of creating this piece. Hopefully that translates to the viewer. What do you see or feel when you look at it? #pastelpainting #pastelart #artoninstagram #instaartist #artforsale #mauihands #framedartforsale #abstractart

Sold this piece to a favorite patron a few weeks ago. Pastel is a forgiving medium to work in but can easily be overworked if too many layers are applied. This was not one of those pieces, however. #pastelpainting #panpastelart #creatingart #nesting #lockdown2020 #artoftheday #instaart #instaartist #artoninstagram

What’s on the table now. Watercolors have been my primary medium for 30 years. What excites me most about the medium is how colors blend on the surface in rich, juicy puddles before soaking into the paper. No other medium does that. Watercolor requires more planning, but is worth the extra effort in the end. #watercolor #watercolorpainting #mauiartist #danielsmithwatercolor #painting #workinprogressart #artworkinprogress #archeswatercolorpaper #colorwheel #christinewaarafineart

It’s always satisfying to put my artwork in a well-suited frame for protection from light and dirt. A lot of time goes into the final touches, such as framing. Whenever someone asks how long it takes to create a piece of art the answer is not definitive. I have been working for decades honing skills, taking workshops and classes, practicing, practicing, practicing and not giving up. That’s the key. Not giving up. It’s risky making a living as an artist. I had to be willing to take a risk and temper the fear that goes along with creative uncertainty. I can say this, though. I have never wanted to do anything else more than this. What have you been willing to take a chance on in order to make possible something meaningful for you? #creativelifehappylife #artistsoninstagram #artistsofinstagram #mauiart #mauiartist #pictureitframed #pictureitframedgallery #createeveryday
