Red, Red Rose

A new floral rose painting is up at nineteencolors.etsy.com Photos of paintings never truly do them justice, but I'm really happy with the depth and lush feel of this work.

New Contemporary Artwork

I've added some contemporary / abstract seascapes to my etsy listings today. One is called Tropical Beach, and depicts Kailua beach from Hawaii. I used to live in Kailua, so we visited this beach frequently and had great times relaxing and snorkeling here. It's also a great area for kayaking out to the nearby little islands, very fun day trip. Anyway, it is well known that I freakin love Hawaii!


Addition numero dos is called Deep Blue Sea. When you're out on the ocean far enough, the water turns this gorgeous deep blue color. This is the view from a boat out on that amazing ocean on a wonderfully calm day. I wish I could just dive right into this ocean!

Custom Ganesha Oil Painting

I've just completed a custom painting for a client, still drying on the easel. I think it turned out great so I wanted to share it here. :) It's for a yoga studio so, Namaste.

Here is one slightly abstract painting of Lanikai beach, showing the calm waters lapping at the shore. The outer reefs and islands create this wonderful, protected beach that we lived near in Hawaii. Fluffy white sand, coral reefs, cool, clear, blue water... I could just go on and on. Best. Beach. Ever.
