Painting with Sita... Again

This time we went to the Harbor Beach (North side of the Harbor)

My three boys came with us

Christian, my oldest boy age 8, took these two shots before we traded hats ;)

Painting Outdoors with Sita!

Last Friday I spent the morning painting at Kukio with the lovely & cheerful Sita Soesman!

Her paintings are as delightful as her company! And if you would like to see them,

please visit her artist's blog:

www.sitascapes.com

This is my "Sita-scape" ;)

I love this view!

Because I am cheeky- painted my painting in her very unique format:

two tall skinny canvases, one on top of the other to make a square.

I don't know anyone else who paintings a diptych like this so, to me, it is very Sita-ish ;)

I'm a painter painting a painting of a painter painting a painting.

My grandfather would have loved that sentence.

White Wings

The White Wings is a rare White Chinese Hibiscus with a red stamen.

This 14x11" acrylic on vintage canvas was painted at the Kohala Coast Fine Art Gallery

for Star Knutson.

Ukulele Player

I went to Huggo's on The Rocks on Friday night to get the reference photos for this painting.

The name of the man who was playing is Gene.
