Spider Lilies Sold

Just sat at the HWS show and found out my Spider Lilies sold last week. I'm so thrilled about this! A good reason to keep on painting.

Off to a Slow Start

I joined an online group called 20 minute challenge. Every day I try to do a painting in 20 minutes. Today's painting is using my new Niji waterbrush- it has a well you fill with water, then just dip into your colors. 20 minutes goes by so quickly- really makes you have to think hard about what comes next.

Spider Lilies-SOLD

Look for Spider Lilies at the 2010 HawaiiWatercolor Soc iety Members' Exhibit. Waimanalo Beach House(SOLD)  didn't make the cut, but I'm happy with one out of two.

Check it out at Arts at Marks from March 28- April 25.

Here are Under a Blue Moon and Waimanalo Beach House.Hope to see you at the artists reception on Thursday, February 25.

New Year Ideas

It's been a long time since I posted pictures. The Windward Wanderer's Show is up and I entered 4 paintings. Here are some ideas I'm working at at home- I didn't paint them this color- put on photoshop and increased saturation to get some new ideas on color.

Hula is life

It's about time for me to start painting hula themes- I've put if off hoping my drawing would get better- but there's no time like now to get started. Hula sisters, I would love to see some of your favorite a`ali`i photos to get some inspiration.


Here's my first few attempts - can you name that hula?

Entering Shows

It's always a challenge for me to look at my work and decide if it's good enough for a show. But happily two works have been accepted:
