Sweet light is experienced just after sunrise and just before sunset. The sun hung low in the sky creates an awe inspiring display of mother nature’s beauty, bringing new hues to your surroundings. Often a time of reflection as the day begins or comes to a close we innately know something so special surrounds our spirit. My feeling of wonder is imagined here in one of Kauai’s breathtaking sunsets.

This painting found her forever home right here on Kaua’i.

Heliconia Rostrata was an exploration in bouncing light, dynamic color and atmosphere. Setting straight lines against soft curves. Placing cool colors next to warm to create vibration. A happy painting indeed!

The funds from the sale went directly to provide meals on Kaua’i through the Salvation Army’s Hanapepe Soup Kitchen. If you are looking to support any of the Kaua’i nonprofits organizations and would like to do it through a purchase the purchase of my art, send me a message. 100% of this sale is going to Kaua’i nonprofits. I love a win-win outcome!

Breathtaking Nā Pali Coast is only accessible by boat or hiking in. Kaua’i is a lush beautiful island and the Napali Coast is her crowning jewel.

This is one of the charming Waimea Cottages here on Kaua’i. These little cottages are a part of Kaua’i history that is slowly disappearing now that the sugar cane industry has closed down here. I have a few favorites I like to paint under the shade of tree.

Waikoko is a piece I did in the studio from a plein air study. I was fortunate enough to join to a group plein air painters from the Northshore of Kaua’i at this location. What a great day!

I would love to go back and paint this scene again!

I remember painting this iconic scene for the first time, not knowing that it would be my most sought after Artwork and become my signature piece.

This tunnel that connects the south side of Kaua’i always felt like coming home to me. The magical nature of the light, color and the trees holding hands above was a favorite that captured my artist’s eye. While painting is pure joy, and sometimes challenging, the proceeds has helped non-profits on Kaua’i. I can’t think of a better legacy for the tree tunnel than helping the people of the island.

I came across this idyllic scene at Hanalei Bay and had to capture it, just a boy, busy at the beach without a care in the world.

I enjoy painting candid photos of children at the beach involved in their task, having fun. I never paint faces, because the art is meant to be a feeling in a moment, not a portrait.

This painting inspired many commissions by parents and grandparents alike for beach day photos turned into Kaua’i art.
