WAHI PANA: SACRED PLACES, PAINTINGS AND PRINTS OF THE PACIFIC ISLANDS
Date: June 22 to September 23 2009
Place: Luana Gallery at the Fairmont Orchid, Hawai'i, Big Island
Contact: Kathleen Abood (Featured Artist - Primal Visions Art Studio Gallery), 808.640.0856, Kbabood@yahoo.com
Kona artist, Kathleen Abood presents a solo art exhibition at the Fairmont Orchid, Hawai'i. The Plein Air paintings selected for this solo art exhibition represent twenty years of creating 'on site' land and seascapes while traveling around the Pacific Islands. The plein air or open air painting session begins with a need to simplify visual details with a point of view. As the image develops and the weather changes, the bright tropical sunlight and luminous clouds on the horizon quickly become vivid brush stroke impressions, and the natural elements of the earth, ocean and sky breathe life into the wet paint.
