It’s happening.
Another return to Hawaii – my third – where I first saw the
koi swimming among lagoons in the lobby of a hotel in Maui in 1986.
I knew then that’s what I wanted to paint when I returned to the studio
after 10 years in business.
And I did exactly that.
Began painting koi in 1988.
Hard to believe that I’m still intrigued by them so many years later.
This trip we’ll venture to Lanai, a quieter island
for some much needed R&R in warmer weather.
Two glorious weeks April 5 to the 19th 🙂
This is eye candy! I love your use of color! This painting is brilliant. I love the brush strokes. Linda you are the master of composition and space in a small space! Is this a start to the New Dutch masters?
Thanks so much Rob. 🙂 While I don’t wear a lot of color I do love playing with it in my work.
There is quite a lot going on in this smaller painting.
