A'eo at Kalokoa Fishpond
acrylic on Aquabord
12 x 16
$440


One of several paintings begun on location  prior to cataract surgery and finished months later in the studio after several more visits to this favorite spot, this is another "transitional" painting.  I find painting with my changed vision both exciting and challenging and am not yet sure where it is leading.
 

Intricate Lava

 One of several paintings begun "en plein air" on location prior to cataract surgery which was finished months later. This spot is on the Kona coat looking South towards Mauna Loa.

Waimea Horses
Acrylic 12 x 16
Gallery Wrapped Canvas

$440

 This painting was begun "en plein air" or on location near the war memorial in Waimea. The horses frequently can be found sheltering under the eucalyptus trees at this spot. I began the painting shortly before much needed cataract surgery curtailed my painting activity.  Finished three months later, this is one of several transitional paintings that straddle what was a significant event in the life of an artist.
