A huge thank you to all of those who attended the opening reception of my solo show "28 Summers" at Kailua Gallery! Special thank you to Ruth Sorensen who made the entire show possible, and special guest Kim of Kyote Designs for displaying her beautiful jewelry.

"28 Summers" is a series of illustrations inspired by a recent move back to my hometown, after spending many years across the country. The pieces vary a bit in subject matter, but are tied together by nostalgic interpretations of my childhood/adolescence growing up in Hawaii. With warm saturated colors, I wanted to depict joyful reflections of endless summer days covered in sun, sweat and outside antics.

I have an assortment of hand embellished, very limited edition prints for sale exclusively at Kailua Gallery. Contact Ruth for availability and purchase info. I also painted a 20x10ft temporary mural on one side of the gallery. Check it out by September 17th, before it gets painted over!
