Hawaii Kroc Center Art Night - "Hope for Tomorrow"

Aloha Friends,

Art teacher by day and art teacher by night!

As some of you probably know already I occasionally teach a few class, do a few shows and give a few demos at the Kapolei Kroc Center. Last Friday was our celebratory our end-of-summer-session Art Night and I was invited back to do another live mural demo. I love Art Nights since it gets the community together in one place to make art, look at art, hear some great local music and just have fun!

A big mahalo to everyone who came out to support our keiki and our community! Cheehoo!

Art Night is an awesome way to get our community together!

Mahalo to everyone who stopped and said HI!

Super tired, but super happy.

Love/PRIDE Mural at Ong King Hawaii

Aloha Friends,

This mural took place over three days and was commissioned for Ong King's June 2015 Pride celebration. I am so very honored to be invited to paint this mural because gay pride and LGBTIQ+ rights are something I feel very passionately about. Love is love. Period. Painting this mural allows me to be an ally and an artist at the same time!

ONG KING Arts Center's mission is to make a sustainable art community. It is a space for creative risk taking, and artistic mastery located in downtown chinatown, Honolulu, Hawaii.

A sustainable art community, exits in mutual support and inspiration of all involved. It depends upon the innovation of the art, the artist, and its positive effect on the community. The ability of the artist to take a chance on learning, or discovering something new, creates a constant cycle of teaching and learning. Every moment at Ong King is a stop in the cycle. Performances reveal work, classes provide guidance, and the space is electrified with growth. Here one can both become humble and try something new, and/or attain new levels of artistic mastery through practice and criticism.

Mahalo for looking! I am going to be painting a few more murals for Ong King in the future so if you have any suggestions or stories to share I'd love to hear it! Write me a comment or send me a message! Mahalo!

Official Sunday Stingray Poster!

Aloha Friends!

I am so pleased to announce that I have official Sunday Stingray prints up and ready for sale! It's been absolutely wonderful to be able to dive right into making things and to have a printer located right around the corner! This poster is the first in a series that expresses my love for all things Hawaii and spreads some Aloha (hopefully!)

I want to take this time to talk a little bit about Sunday Stingray's motto: Float on, float on. My goal with creating Sunday Stingray is to spread a little Aloha with every print, shirt, sticker, postcard, etc. Sometimes life gets you down, things don't go as planned and it's hard to keep going. In those moments you just have to keep movin', keep hustlin', keep workin'. Just float on friend, keep floatin' on.

The photo used in the poster is one of my favorite photos that I took on Kaho'olawe last year. That's right, the "forbidden" Hawaiian island, visits are by invitation only! I was truly blessed to be able to go there and do some work to help restore the 'aina! I think my experience on Kaho'olawe best expresses my motto: float on. You can be bombed, ruined, over run by people and goats and there will still be people who band together to help you heal and grow.

Float on Kaho'olawe, float on my friend.

Please stop on by www.sundaystingray.com to pick up your official poster (and sticker!)

Don't forget to add me on facebook for the latest up to date news! Mahalo!

Please visit the Kaho'olawe Island Reserve Commission (KIRC) website: http://kahoolawe.hawaii.gov/ if you want to learn more about this amazing island (and maybe do some volunteering!).

Here are some more fun Kaho'olawe photos of my trip if you are interested:

Stay Positive or Stay Silent!

Aloha Friends!

I have two new prints available here for purchase. "Stay Positive or Stay Silent" I feel is a good motto nowadays. It's too easy to say something, in person or on the internet, that we really don't mean or say in the heat of the moment. It's hard to stay optimistic but we do what we can, (living in Hawaii certainly helps!) So here is the first in a series of Motiovational(ish) posters.

Each poster is full color printed on archive paper, 12" x 8" unframed (Framing options coming soon!)

Please visit: http://sundaystingray.bigcartel.com/ to check it out!
