Real estate in Hawaii may not be very affordable but you can still have an island memory in a small vignette painting. This small Hawaiian island cottage painting was one of four island cottage vignettes commissioned by a Real Estate agent in Silicon Valley (California).

Palm trees and bamboo sway above quaint tin red roofs. Blue sky peeks out of clouds who’s substance seems unique and special in the islands. I know that when I’m on Kauai the clouds seem like no other.

My small island plantation cottage paintings have been very popular and are collected at all of my art festivals. I believe that the subject connects with island loving people in a very special way and I never tire of paintings these small home portraits. They are a nice little slice of island life that lives and thrives well on the mainland.
