Maui certainly knows how to capture my attention. The last couple of days have produced over 34” of rain. We’ve needed rain so our plants are happy. I’m keeping in mind that without this rain we wouldn’t have our lush island. Besides, by staying indoors due to flash flood warnings I’m able to focus on some indoor tasks…like getting ready for #mauiopenstudios2023, what I’m going to demonstrate at #mauihands in Wailea tomorrow from 1:30-3:30, and clearing out space in my house. #artistinresidence #mauihawaii #inspirationforart #canoepaddling #haikuhawaii #mauiartist
9x12 oil of this gala tree. The hala tree is of great cultural, health and economic importance in many Pacific Islands. The fruit of the tree is used as a food source in many Pacific Islands. The fruits are often consumed fresh or as a preserved food while the trunks of P. tectorius can be used as building material, and leaves for thatching. #halatree #maui #oilpainting #pleinairpainting #hawaiianlife #pacificoceanview #mamasfishhouse #painting #mauiartist
“Lucky Seven” is one of my two pieces juried into the Maui Pastel Society’s international pastel show to open Saturday, October 8 at the Village Gallery in Lahaina, HI. If you’re in town please come by the gallery for the show opening. Guaranteed there will be a lot of beautiful pastels, other art, pupus, and drinks. Come to the show to see my other piece. 😊
Curious what this will turn into. It feels so good to be back into watercolor after such a leave of absence entertaining other mediums. Painting water is so much fun!! Even better when painting WITH water! 💦 #watercolorpainting #fineart #fineartist #watercolorartist #paintingwater #paintingwatercolor
