Niihau - Me Ke Aloha - this is one of the first layers for this painting... more pictures as she evolves...
For a couple of years now I have taken part in some online art classes. They have been a great way to connect and be in community with like minded artists all around the world. People from Italy, Finland, America, The Uk, Switzerland, The Emirates all connect online and paint together. This artwork is one that I painted while taking part in a course called Legendary Life by Shiloh Sophia. For quite a few years I practiced Hawaiian Lomi Lomi and studied Hawaiian Philosophy, this artwork integrates some of the feeling from those times.
