Hamakua Marsh - Stage 1

This is the beginning stage, where I loosely block in
color and shapes in acrylic paint or in oils. This painting
was completed entirely in acrylics. This first layer of paint
is very thin, and that is very necessary to do when painting
with oils..."fat over lean".

Singapore Plumeria

What a wonderful variety of Plumeria in
Hawaii. The Singapore Plumeria is the most fragrant of all.

Pink Torch Ginger #2

Several types of ginger are found in Hawaii.
This painting is a good companion for the previous
post "Just Peachy - Hibiscus". I did not paint
both at the same time, but loved the colors so much
in one that I painted the next one similiar.

Driftwood at Diamondhead Beach

Amazing how a piece of driftwood adds such interest to a painting. It's shape and twists give the driftwood character and almost a personality. But then, live trees are full of character as well. Must paint some live trees soon. Started a new, larger landscape today; but the trees in it are secondary,not the main attraction.
