KAILUA BEACH CANAL – Painted in the style of André la Derain It was highly educational to replicate this image by André Derain. I learned that, although he had some cool ideas about color and its use, he was a careless painter, thus getting muddy colors and sloppy sections. I’m a smoother, and he was […]

ANGELA MODIGLIANI
Self-portrait #2, done in the style of Amadeo Modigliani, one of my all-time favorite painter/sculptors. Amadeo Modigliani (which is pronounced MOH-dee-lee-AHN-ee – the G is silent) had a very distinct style that has always appealed to me. It was very simplified, and intensely stylized, yet he always somehow was able to get the personality of […]
ANGELA van GOGH
I’m not sure I really like this – it’s pretty harsh looking – but here’s my first attempt at a self-portrait in the style of Vincent van Gogh. I got the idea watching a series of wonderful videos called the Forger’s Masterclasses – where an ex-forger was showing 3 students in each video how to […]
OUTRIGGER
Today I wrote my postman a note on one of my art postcards that has this painting on it. He’s been a continuing pain in the butt – leaving my mail half sticking in and out of the slot, allowing it to get rained on, not knocking on the door as I asked him to […]
INTO THE LIGHT
When I came back to Hawaii in 2002, it was a very scary time for me. I had almost no money, so I had to take a job. The only one I could find was pushing time share brochures into people’s hands as they walked along on the streets of Waikiki. 7 hours a day, […]
DEER PRAYER
In late 1999, I was house-sitting for some friends in Tesuque, NM. (pronounced tess-OO-kee) It was bloody cold – maybe you don’t know this, but Santa Fe is 7000′ above sea level, and Tesuque is a bit higher. There was snow that morning; my blankies weren’t sufficient, and being naturally a tropical gal, I was […]
DELIGHT
Every morning before I get up, I do my best to spend an hour in meditation. If I don’t do that, I feel disjointed and discombobulated all day, or at lest until I get to sit and focus inside. It has become such an integral part of my life that if I stopped I would […]
FROGGIE!
I’m not sure what year this is from – probably around ’78 or so, since this is stoneware, and I hadn’t switched to porcelain yet. I went through a big froggies phase – painting them on tiles, vases, mugs, plates and platters – in greens and blacks and browns – not sure why – it […]
For Thine Ears Only
I painted this when I was Artist-in-Residence, down in Gore on the South Island of New Zealand. I had a dream where these women were shocked at my sharing how cool EFT/tapping was. I was shocked that they were shocked, and finally got them to see how important it is that we know how incredibly […]
Cool Interview by Top Art Blogger! WooHoo...
Last week I had a sweet invitation to be one of the artists interviewed for artist/blogger website belonging to a gal who goes by the intriguing name of Tangerine Meg. She asked some great Qs and added a really good bunch of my artwork on the page, too (6 or 7 pieces). (Image shown: Sing […]
Do You Allow Your Inner Guidance?
Have you ever wanted to keep doing something you love, but it just seemed like something was in the way? I’ve felt like that. I couldn’t figure out what what to do. Finally, I made a very simple, very powerful decision: that I’d let my intuition and connection to Spirit guide me more than ever. […]

Art Enriches My Life
I had a whole bunch of plants on the little patio outside my office door that had gotten way too big for the space – I had less and less room to walk through the space. And besides, they were getting sunburned from too much sun since the shade is retreating with the oncoming summer. […]

Learning to Paint – Again?
I’ve been painting all my life, but I’m the first one to admit I have a whole lot to learn. Recently I’ve been experimenting (tearing out my hair!) with acrylics. I’m used to the pliability and richness of oils, and I’m telling you, acrylics is a whole nother beast. But I’m slowly getting used to […]
Now You Can Get Fantastic Prints of My Pa...
A big part of my expanding my Dream of doing more art is finally being able to make prints available of my work. And it’s happening! Now people can get really nice prints of my work on paper, framed or unframed, or on canvas! Formerly, if anyone wanted a print, I did it myself, printing, […]
Rock Slide – Finished!
Here it is! Can you see his little toes? Why do my horses have fingers and toes and a face on the shoulder? Because they are Magical Beings who can change form according to whim and fancy – why be a boring old human when you sift into Horse or Bird or Whale? Here’s Rock […]
2 Surprise Portraits!
Many, many years ago, I did a slew of portraits for people. A couple of weeks ago, my brother contacted me and asked me to do ones of his grandkids. Quite frankly, I didn’t know if I was too rusty, but I said yes anyway – what the heck. Why not try it and see […]
