My Inspiration
From O'ahu trails to Big Island Forests
Hawai'i's amazing native birds inspire me! As a kamaʻaina born and raised near forest a reserve on O'ahu and now living near Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park on Hawai'i Island, through my art I strive to convey of the beauty of our native manu (birds) and mea kanu (plants) and the importance of preserving them for future generations. I started out photographing and painting manu on t-shirts for family and friends. Now my specialty is handmade, carved ceramic tiles, as well as ceramic and glass mosaics, depicting Hawaiian birds, blossoms, and berries in their native habitat.
My ceramic art has been included in art exhibitions at Wailoa Center in Hilo and at the Volcano Art Center in the Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park. You may also find my art at Banyan Gallery in Hilo, on Etsy.com, and in my online store.
