• Honu Hatchlings NEW RELEASE
  
  
  Inspiration: The ‘Ea is the name of the Hawaiian Hawksbill Sea Turtle. It is sometimes called Houn ‘Ea although Honu is actually the name of the more abundant Green Sea turtle. The ‘Ea is a rare species with a bill shaped like a hawk’s beak that it uses for foraging. Its main food source are sponges which are actually animals as compared to Algae (plants) that are the main food source of the Honu. The meat of the ‘ea was said to be toxic due to its diet of sponges. The Shell of the ‘Ea has more pointed edges and scute sections than other turtles and was highly prized in old Hawaii for making tools and decorative ornaments. As it gets older, the points of its shell become smoother resembling other species of sea turtle. One main difference in the facial plates of the ‘Ea is that there are four plates between its eyes as compared to just two plates on the Honu.

• Patrick Ching Art Class Testimonial - "Auntie Sistah Robi"
  
  
  Aloha mai kākou.  This is me, Auntie Sistah Robi presenting my very first oil painting.  I can't thank my friend, Patrick Ching, enough for having me in one of his recent oil painting classes.  It was a dream come true. Not only is Patrick my favorite Hawaiian artist, but, turns out, he is an incredible teacher, as well.  I learned so much in the relative short time we had.  I have a whole new appreciation for all the colors found in the sky and in the ocean, l look up at the clouds and think about how l would paint them, all thanks to Patrick's wonderful class.  I am definitely more than inspired to want to paint more. Honestly, l highly recommend taking one of his classes to anyone who has ever considered painting, as Patrick makes it super fun and almost therapeutic.  Mahalo nui loa, my bruddah, for sharing your gift and knowledge.  Here's to another session in the near future.  You are DA BEST!
