    What a great way to start the New Year. I woke this morning to Water Magic being featured in Colors of Water and Tropical Island featured in Polynesian Connection. Last night My Sweet Baby was featured for the second time in Domestic and Pedigree Cats. I am extremely honored and humbled by these features. Many thanks to the moderators for selecting these images in their wonderful groups.

  • Flight of the Monarchs

    Aloooha and a beautiful first day of 2009 to one and all, Yesterday I celebrated the final day of 2008 at one of my favorite places on Maui, Tropical Plantation in Wailuku. Many of my favorite photos were taken at this lush tropical wonder. Lately I have been blessed with dragonflies flying circles in my path and yesterday there were families of monarch butterflies flying in twosees and threesees around me at a particular flowering, flowing, green tropical plant. I stood there in wonder and attempted to snap them with my new camera phone but they were too elusive for the techno device so I just chose to enjoy their presence. It was a wonder to behold. We here in the Hawaiian islands have great reverence for our Kings and Queens of the past and I found it fitting that the butterflies were of the monarch variety. The unseen world always surrounds us, doesn’t it? Blissings to us all. Best wishes for health, healing and prosperity for this excellent year of 2009. We truly are in for great, positive, joyful change. -Kamalani xox

    If you love Kauai, Hawaii, anything Tropical, then you have come to the right place! I am Marionette, a full time artist living on the island of Kauai, where I teach art classes throughout the week at my studio in Waimea, Painting Paradise. Here’s an excerpt from an old blog entry of mine for you to enjoy. A little “artist humor”. You might be an artist if… / -You refer to your favorite color as French ultramarine blue or alizarin crimson. / -You spend more on art supplies than on groceries. / -A “green” thumb means you have been painting landscapes all day. / -You suddenly feel the urge to lay a graded wash. / -You only watch PBS to see Bob Ross reruns. / -You carry a French easel in the trunk of your car for those “plein air” emergencies. / -140 lbs. is your ideal “paper” weight. / -You know what the heck “trompe-l’oeil” is. / -You always refer to white as “titanium white”. / -You accidentally dip your paint brush in your tea cup or coffee cup. / -You save your old tooth brushes for those “Jackson Pollock” moments. / -You often use your thumbs and fore fingers to make an impromptu viewfinder. / -You see a color and automatically think of its compliment. / -Every Halloween you consider dressing as Van Gogh – sans one ear. / -You always take a smaller version of your supplies with you on vacation. / -Other people often refer to you as “eccentric”. / -The smell of a freshly opened box of crayons gets you overly excited. / -You shop at the thrift store only to find items for your next still life.
