Alone in the world

Beach painting

“Pupukea bus ride”

11”x14”

Acrylic on paper

If you were seeing this painting anywhere, I don’t think you’d know I painted this, Is something I’ve never done before, I don’t usually use a lot of colors, I love using whites and lavenders with black so I’m surprised of how this one turned out because even tho is not even and is not perfect I do love all the weird elements in it, perhaps nothing really makes sense to you, the house it’s the main focus here, I feel like the inspiration comes from the houses I’ve seen while riding the bus on the route that goes on Kamehameha Highway by Pupukea on the North Shore, all the houses there are right by the ocean, some of them so old and unique, others more modern with asian accents, big and small and surrounded by plants and flowers and lots of palm trees, I guess I collected some of the details i’ve liked and dream about my ideal home. There’s me on the corner right below admiring the mountains and the waves. A clay vase I made, some flowers, a wave, more palm trees and overall just me exploring the brushes and the acrylic palette I have.

Does it bother you to have all these frames hung like that?

I paint this little thing the other day at the beach, I’ve never use these colors but I kinda liked it, not sure what to do with it but for now I’m keeping it.
