Aloha & Mahalo: / Two of the most important words in the Hawaiian language / Say them often............ they can be life-transforming and life-enhancing / Use them ONLY if you truly feel mahalo or aloha within. / Aloha and mahalo are indescribable, and undefinable with words alone / To be understood, they must be experienced. / It is with Aloha & Mahalo I dedicate this painting to all my Hoaloha’s & `Ohana / firends & family / ORIGINAL AVAILABLE FOR SALE

Palm Silhouettes / Sunset Christmas Day on Maui The Adventurer “Dusk on the sea; the fading twilight shifts / The night wind bears the ocean’s whisper dim wind, on your bosom many a phantom drifts - A silver star climbs up the blue world rim. / Wind, make the green leaves dance above me here And idly swing my silken hammock – so; / Now, on that glimmering molten silver mere / Send the long ripples wavering to and fro. / And let your moon-white tresses touch my face And let me know your slim-armed, cool embrace While to my dreamy soul you whisper low. Dream – aye, I’ve dreamed since last night left her tower And now again she comes on star-soled feet. Welcome, old friend; here in this rose-gemmed bower I’ve drowsed away your Sultan’s golden heat. Here in my hammock, Time I’ve dreamed away For I have but to stretch a hand out, lo, I’m treading languorous shores of Yesterday, Moon-silvered deserts or the star-weird snow; I float o’er seas where ships are purple shells, / I hear the tinkle of the camel bells / That waft down Cairo’s streets when dawn winds blow. South Seas! I watch when dusky twilight comes Making vague gods of ancient, sea-set trees. / The world path beckons – loud the mystic drums – Here at my hand the magic golden keys / That fit the doors of Romance, / Wonder, / strange / Dim gossamer adventures; seas and stars. Why, I have roamed the far Moon Mountain range When sunset minted gold in shimmering bars. / All eager eyed I’ve sailed from ports of Spain / And watched the flashing topaz of the Main / When dawn was flinging witch fire on the spars. / I am content in dreams to roam my fill / The vagrant, drifting sport of wind and tide, / Slave of the greater freedom, venture’s thrill; / Here every magic ship on which I ride. Gold, green, blue, red, a priceless treasure trove, More wealth than ever pirate dared to dream. / My hammock swings – about the world I rove. / The sunset’s dusk, the dawning’s glide and gleam, Moon-dappled leaves are murmuring in the wind Which whispers tales. Lo, Tyre is just behind, Through seas of dawn I sail, / Romance abeam.” ~ by Robert Ervin Howard My images do not belong to the public domain and may not be reproduced in any manner whatsover without my express written authorization. / Copyright © Sharon Mau 2009 / All Rights Reserved Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi / 25 December 2008 19:25:33 / Tv Shutter Speed 1/250 / Av Aperture Value 10.0 / ISO 100 / Lens EF28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM / Focal Length 28.0 mm Currently with 995 Views and 1 Sale

Aloha Kakou, It is wonderful how the image feed works on RedBubble. / There are beautiful images streaming through the image feed every day. / I love that about it, and I actually seek out images on this site for that very reason, to view and admire them, learn from them, and if I resonate with it and really love the work, I favourite them. It is one of the things I love about this virtual community. If I could redesign the image feed it would stream the favourites of those on my watchlist as well as the recent work from the homepage. Depending on my interest of the day, often I type random keywords into the search browser on this site and discover the most extraordinary beauty. The portfolio collections on this site are a tremendous source of creative inspiration and I am constantly amazed, dazzled and inspired by the many brilliant and talented photographers and artists on this site. Most of my groups are specialised, and I enjoy them all. And like many Hosts on RedBubble, of those groups which I moderate, I have my favourites for the subject and content and Dimensions is on the top of the list.. I know, big surprise considering I live on the beautiful tropical island of Maui and I host the Hawai’i group, yet the lovely islands are included within this group as well as the majestic beauty of Alaska and many other beautiful people and places around the world. I love them all. Dimensions covers such a wide range of content, subjects and styles, it is a multi-faceted international community with many interests. RedBubble describes our groups as little villages and it is so true. I also love the Impressionist Art group. It is wonderfully inspiring. For those of you who have featured my work, and for those who have responded and left wonderful comments and notes, mahalo nui loa, thank you very much. I cherish every single message and will respond as soon as I can. Hopefully you will understand about Time as so much of my free time online is devoted to viewing and featuring your work :)) The images you see in the various galleries and featured in all the groups I host are chosen carefully and featured based on their own individual merit with my compliments to you. For me this is not a popularity contest. I look at the image first and then I view the entire portfolio of the Artist. I am familiar with every single member of all my groups, not on a personal level of course, yet I recognise each one and thank you for joining, mahalo for your enthusiasm, and for contributing your beautiful artistic expressions. There is so much more to moderating and hosting groups than many people realise. I do enjoy it very much. Most of all I enjoy bringing a smile to someone’s day with a feature. That is the fun part. After hosting for a year on this site I have learned so much from all of you! This experience has certainly broadened my scope, opened my heart and widened my horizons. My primary goal is to offer talented photographers and artists an additional storefront to showcase your work. It is my gift of Aloha for you. So, you may look at it this way. Consider the groups as Fine Art Galleries, as specialised wonderful shoppes where you may enter and browse around at your leisure, very much like a beautiful art gallery you would enter in Wailea or Munich, Venezia, Lahaina, Manhattan, Black Stone River Valley, Cape Town, Melbourne, Honolulu, Pa’ia, Aix-en-Provence, Udaipur, London, San Francisco, Sidney, Tempe, Tres Ritos, La Paz, Ontario, Harrisburg, Hilo, Kyoto, Rome, Barcelona, Karachi, Sao Paulo, Bangkok, etc. etc. ....... The only things missing are the complimentary Clos du Mesnil and pupu. I wish for you to know I keep all these things in mind for consideration when moderating images. While it is nice to hear from those members I promote, it is not required to receive a feature. There is no personal favouritism. For me it is purely and simply an honest straightforward approach and a sincere appreciation for beautiful Fine Art and the artists who create them. Now perhaps you have a better understanding and an idea of what goes on behind the scenes. / As a Host, this is what I do and I love doing it. Mahalo nui loa and Aloha kakou. / Thank you so much for your kindness, your wonderful reciprocity, your always welcome encouragement and positive feedback, and most of all your creative vision and beautiful art. Aloha mai ‘e, E pili mau na pomaika`i ia `oe. / May blessings be with you always. Sharon Mau / 25 August 2009

Black Ink, Graphite, Coloured Pencil & Pastel on A5 110 gsm cartridge This began as a sketch on the Palm Beach ferry… on a near perfect sunny day. It follows on from Girl & The Sea, continuing to explore my love of the ocean & the peace & serenity it brings. The title, Caught A Light Breeze, comes from one of my favourite songs ever… music soothes the soul, just as much the ocean sometimes.

Full Moon Hoku / Wailea Beach / Maui Hawai’i Ko’i / Sacred Sunrise Ceremony honouring Ko’i, (the Hawaiian stone Adze) which is an ancient Hawaiian Pohaku (stone) tool still used today, which is crafted from the hardest basalt pohaku found on stone quarries throughout the Hawaiian Islands. “Highly prized by Hawaiians, for it helped to shape the world of Hawaiians to survive in the most remote and isolated place in the midst of the Pacific Ocean”. The Ko’i helped to fell trees to build canoes, build hales (homes), carve bowls, weapons and many other important implements which help and protect the people of Hawai’i Nei” This ceremony was hosted by the Maui Chamber of Commerce. My husband Jacob Mau is na Kupuna o Maui, he is a Hawaiian Elder of Maui, and he is in one of a fleet of 12 canoes on the horizon as Kanaka (Hawaiians) dance Haka and chant Olelo greeting the full moon at sunrise as they are calling in the Kanaka Kupuna (Hawaiian Elders) in traditional Hawaiian language, chanting and song. It was so beautiful. This is a presentation representative of the 12 Moku (districts) of Maui with a Kanaka Kupuna (Hawaiian Elder) representing each Moku bearing a ho’okupu (gift) of a pohaku (stone) from their moku (district) in honour of Ko’i. The Ko’i and Pohaku, the Ho’okupu are transported on the canoes with Na Kupuna O Maui, and upon their arrival at sunrise on the beach near the Grand Wailea, a sacred ceremony took place including a presentation of Maui’s 12 Moku (districts), represented by 12 Pohaku (volcanic stones) placed by their respective Kupuna on the Ahu (altar). This is in recognition of all districts of Maui and for all the people of this island beginning with Honuaula, the location where we are here at Wailea Beach, to Kahikinui, Kaupo, Kipahulu, Hana, Ko’olau, Hamakualoa, Hamakuapoko, Wailuku, Ka’anapali, Lahaina, and Kula. I have many more images to publish with more information on this beautiful sunrise ceremony so please, check back soon for updates.

Ho`okupu is used to ensure growth, increase mana (spiritual power, life force) or cause to sprout. Your ho`okupu could be your voice [oli], a kinolau [physical manifestation of deity i.e. awa, kalo, i`a] or something that is made by or precious to the individual or group making the request. A ho`okupu is an offering of symbolic significance for the occasion. / It may be a certain type of food or plant, a song or chant, perhaps even a rock or water from your homeland. My husband’s Pohaku is from one of his many Moku, Kaupo. Jacob is Kanaka Kapuna (a Hawaiian Elder) representing Mau Ohana and his Moku o Kaupo, Makena, Ahihi Kinau, Ulupalakua, Kalepa, Kana’io, Kahikinui.

Sunset Pa’ako Beach Makena Maui Hawai’i “She whose gentle footfall and radiant face / Hold the power to charm more than a vision / Of chariots and the mail-clad battalions Of Lydia’s army.” / The gleaming stars all about the shining moon / Hide their bright faces, / when full-orbed and splendid In the sky she floats, / flooding the shadowed earth with clear silver light.” Quoted by Eustathius of Thessalonica in the twelfth century.

Get your cool on! / Better Than (John Butler Trio) / / The “shaka” sign is a common greeting gesture. It is often associated with Hawaii. Hawaiian locals use the shaka for various meanings, like “all right”, “cool”, “smooth”, etc. Residents of states other than Hawaii who use the shaka may describe it as meaning “hang loose” and in California, the symbol itself is more commonly called the “hang loose” sign rather than the “Shaka” sign. It is also used to convey what locals in Hawai’i call the “Aloha Spirit,” a gesture of friendship and understanding between the various ethnic cultures that reside within Hawai’i. It can also be used to signal a “hello”, “goodbye”, ” ‘till next time”, “take care”, “Alright!” In sign language, the shaka is one of the two signs used to refer to surfing. / (excerpt taken from wikepedia) / / words on tee / wassup, cuz, brz, bro, alright!, mahalo,aloha, righteous, cool, shaka,hang loose

Ko Aloha Ko Aloha Ka’u Mea Nui / Hawaiian Translation: Your love, your love is a great thing to me / Everywhere I look, I see beauty. Listen if you would hear the music of the land. Imitate nature in your art. Give one blessing for every two you receive. Never refuse a gift of the land. Heed well the voice of your heart. Give to the land more than you take. The song of the sea is neverending. On any great journey, be guided by the stars, na hoku. Learn of the world around you, and in the learning, ... find / yourself. Honor the memory of your ancestors, your kupuna. Every life is precious; every spirit unique and / irreplaceable. A Journey of the spirit is never truly finished—its paths / continually unfold before us. A life well spent is like the banyan tree—anchored to the / land by many roots. The rain is a blessing of renewal upon the earth. Arise, oh Sun, and warm the land with your passage! Though I have no wings, my spirit flies upon the wind! Strength is the warrior within. The land is rich in abundance for those who know where to / look. In the song of the ocean, I find healing. Let me be like the dolphin—joyous in the knowledge of my / freedom! The sun’s light brings new life—the moon’s glow, renewal. In each of us dwells the fountainhead of greatness. The creative source is also the source of life. Each of us must aspire to the heights of our own abilities. Our spirits are reborn in the land. What benefits the Earth, Ke Au Nei, benefits all life. Find the good in every aspect of life. The wind bides for a spell in this place, then it seeks / other lands to explore. Stone remains when all else passes away. Build to preserve….
