JULY SCHEDULE, en plein aire

Aloha July, Aloha Artists!! July's here with all kinds of happenings, First Friday events, & the action at Kalani Resort. July is a wonderful time of year, with it's warmth, & the occasional "unexpected" storms that dance through here. It makes for some good painting weather, so set aside some time for a session or two. Keep in mind that this blog is a spot to share your plein air related stuff. Send your pics or whatever it is, & I can post them.. me ke aloha, Amy

JULY SCHEDULE, EN PLEIN AIRE
1- WAI'ULI BEACH PARK, Keaukaha – (formerly Leleiwi). Our location for every first Thursday. Loads of beautiful views, tide pools, sea grass, honu, Nene, etc. Informal midday critique for bring recent work, or any other project you might like feedback on. Kalaniana'ole Ave. to Wai'uli Beach Park, just before Richardson's. 5 pavilions in a row, orange life guard tower on the point. Parking & lua.

8- ALA HEIAU– Ocean side location, at the bottom of Maku'u Rd in Hawaiian Paradise Park. Follow Maku'u to Ala Heiau Rd. (4miles), turn right. Drive to the end & park (allow access for the fishermen’s trucks). Vistas of coast, tidepools, wind whipped trees, & rowdy surf from the safety of wonderfully shaded cliffs. A Crowd Favorite.

15- CARLSMITH BEACH PARK, aka 4 MILE - Keaukaha.. NOT really 4 miles from anything in particular, but it's real pretty there.. Large sweeping trees, rolling lawns, enclosed bay. Infamous for it's Honu population, but we love it for it's lovely views. Kalainana’ole Ave, Keaukaha to Carlsmith Beach Park, makai side, across from Seaside Restaurant. Bathrooms, parking.

22- LAUPAHOEHOE POINT- Rugged cliffs w/pounding surf, incredibly beautiful & often windy, but always gorgeous. Pali views both ways along the coast. From Hilo towards Honokaa, turn makai on Laupahoehoe Point Road (just past 27 mile marker).. pavilions, lua, parking

29- COCONUT ISLAND/MOKU OLA- A small island accessed by a foot bridge, it is encircled by turquoise waters. The views across the bay are captivating, & it is common to see boats, ships, & canoe action all through the bay. Across from Lili’uokalani Gardens, we set up in the parking lot, on the island or anywhere around there that strikes you.
