Miniature Paintings; Scenes of O'ahu
These little darlings are 2" x 2" ($25 each). They are painted with India ink on canvas. Some have real Hawaii sand as the beach. They are presented on a little brass stand (included) and they have a hanger on the back in case you'd rather hang them in a group as shown above. Each one has the name of the painting and the artist's signature on the back (pictured below). Around the sides are familiar Hawaiian tattoo designs. All are available because if you like one of these, I paint it to order or you can come to one of my shows (see the "showings" page for my schedule) and see what's available at my booth for instant gratification retail therapy LOL. Other scenes to choose from will be added as I paint them.You can email me a picture of a landscape you particularly love and I will paint my rendition of it for you. email me at [email protected].

Magic Mountains
6" x 4" acrylic painted on archival black foam core. Ko'olau Range, O'ahu, Hawai'i. This is the range behind Chinaman's Hat (pictured below at a slightly different angle). As a girl, I used to love seeing this range because it was when we were on our way out to the country. Back then I used to say, "I wish I could paint those mountains." Now, as a grown-up girl, I say, "I wish I was a girl on my way out to the country with mom and dad." Funny how perspectives change eh? The mountains still speak to me in their magical way though. Hope you can feel the magic? SOLD
