"Meh" Prints! Now in a Variety of Colors!

Aloha Friends!

I got some quality time in the studio this last weekend and am working on a fun, new print series! This is "Meh!" He's a fun little guy, who I doodle all the time, to help me get through those "Meh" moments... during meetings, waiting in line, trying to stay focused, whenever! "Meh" prints and cards will be available at the Honolulu Printmakers Annual Sale in November. Check it out!

Don't forget to follow me on instagram! http://instagram.com/bozschurr

I'll be keeping you updated as soon as I get more prints and bags! As I get inventory re-stocked I'll be re-opening my online store and posting times and events I'll be at to sell! What image would you want on a bag? or as a print? What image says Hawaii like no other? Let me know! Any idea I use and make into a art I'll send you a free hand made print! Cheehoo!

Mahalo for looking!

"The Waves on the Sea"

Aloha Friends,

I just finished a new drawing "The Waves on the Sea." this last year has brought a lot of change and growth and I see that movement like the waves on the sea; constant, beautiful and healing. I am drawing more now after my large mural project so check back for more images about Hawaii and Oregon. Mahalo!

Aloha Friends!

I have been working like a flying fish on some of these new designs! I got a GREAT response to the Aloha print so I have decided to transfer it to a tote bag! Big Mahalo!

Since I am just starting out I am always looking to spread the Aloha. I want to know what is your favorite tote design. Leave me a comment and you'll be entered to win a tote bag and some stickers! Also I am looking to spread the word! Help me promote Sunday Stingray! CheeHoo!

I am hoping after some response I'll be back in the studio in a few weeks printing these!

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:

Aloha Print Design!

I am so blessed to be able to live a life filled with Aloha! Living on Oahu I feel it everyday! I made this print (coming soon!) to compete my Hawaiian Days of the Week print series. The design in the background is inspired by traditional Hawaiian and Polynesian tattoo designs. The triangles symbolize mountains and shark's teeth and the Monstera Leaves are common ground plants (sky = mountains, plants = earth and sea = shark's teeth)!

Aloha in every way, every day!

Mahalo Nui Loa for looking! And I hope today you get some Aloha of your own!

Easy Like Lâpule Morning!

The prints are coming along! I have all backgrounds finished plus Saturday and Sunday (since it's the weekend duh!) ;) It's hard to tell in this photo but each day of the week (the English and pronunciation) will be a color of the rainbow. Sunday = Red, Monday = Orange, Tuesday =Yellow, etc, etc. ROYGBIV forever!

I am so excited to be printing again and seeing old friends and students (who are just about to graduate, I'm so proud!!) in the studio! What a lovely Sunday. Can't wait to finish the rest of the week! Huzzah!
