Surf Competition North Shore

               Two years ago I painted this the day before the big

                Surf championship on the North Shore of Oahu.

                 Two years later it is not quite finished and another 

                 Championship is under way.  Time is wasting, go surf

                  (Or paint ),

Pali Puka

Original Acrylic of a plein air painting by Rebecca Snow of Honolulu

If you hike along the Koolau range you will see this sharp peak. I

got to paint beside some of my favorite artists on the island this day.

Mark N. Brown was the instructor for his once a week early morning

Plein air class. It was a typical beautiful day and there were hikers ascending

the jagged edge do the Pali Puka cliff. 

Come to Oahu and learn to paint. I promise you will love it.

Sandy Beach Shade -original painting by Rebecca Snow of Honolulu

Original painting by Rebecca Snow
"Sandy Beach Shade"
Oahu Hawaii
16 x 20
(painted plein air during Mark Brown's class on Saturday early morning July 27th 2013)

Monica posed for the class as we tried to cover up in the hot sun.
It was a beautiful day and the ocean was spectacular.
I learned a little and painted fast to capture the perfect moment.
I have several corrections to make but hope this post inspires you to paint
or at least sit in the little bit of shade at Sandy's Beach and watch the waves swoosh around the rocks.

PAINTING A PEACOCK and THE MISSING MOON

PAINTING A PEACOCK 

I am teaching Lia to paint and she came up with the idea of a 4 panel peacock. 

I was not sure it could work, but WOW was I wrong. I am so excited about this

project and it looks great at each stage of the painting. 

Lia is painting most of this with my instruction but I sent her home with the painting and "HOMEWORK". She is going to be painting the stems and greenery.

So , I was so smart and MS. KNOW IT ALL and we were plugg'in along painting when Lia realized we were missing the middle panel with the moon on it.

the missing moon appears

Okay, so that was a pretty obvious item that the teacher (me) should have picked up on.

There was a lot of giggling going on and the final painting will be wonderful but the "getting there" has been so much fun. I love the creative process. What a great way to spend a Friday morning.

Oh and Lia has named this Peacock LILA.

stay tuned for the next PEACOCK UPDATE

the most beautiful Samoan girl ever

PADDLE AT DIAMOND HEAD

outrigger at Diamond Head by Honolulu artist Rebecca Snow

PADDLE

There is joy in teamwork

so they say

but I like things done

just my way

if I were a padd'ler

I'd row real slow

or paint all  the sites

and have no where to go.
