DECEMBER en PLEIN AIRE

Aloha Artists, Aloha December! 
 Well, this is the last month of 2012, so lets use it with some panache. I'm sending my aloha and good vibrations for a beautiful holiday season to you all, and wow, 2013 is almost upon us!  I am looking forward to yet another year of painting outside on our beautiful island. Me ke aloha Pumehana, AM

 DECEMEBER SCHEDULE-every Thursday, 8am, bring your own stuff and paint quietly--

6-WAI'ULI BEACH PARK/Keaukaha, Hilo. Kalaniana'ole Ave to just before Richardson's Beach Park. Turn into the large parking area with 5 pavilions in a row. Views from every vantage, tide pools, wave action, across the bay views, all with a Mauna Kea backdrop; lovely Hamakua is on the horizon. Facilities, and water available.
13-HILO BAY/Canoe Landing,Hilo. Off of Kamehameha Ave. Turn into the parking area and proceed through the open gates to the canoe landing areas, we should be well distributed along the shore or by the halau. There's lots of parking, bathrooms, and water. Nice bay & town views. The canoes (wa'a wa'a) lend bright color punches, and the sheds (halau) are wonderful structures.
20-KING'S LANDING-Keaukaha, Hilo. Kalaniana'ole Ave. to the end, through the yellow gate and then along the shoreline dirt road, turn into the last entrance on the makai side. The painters will be along the shoreline there. Shady, wild and fun. Lua, no water.
27-Prince Kuhio Kalaniana'ole Beach Park- Just after "The Ponds" restaurant, makai side. A small entrance that I sometimes miss & have to turn around to :), has a sign, but for some reason, I don't see it, even tho I know where it is! Shade, picnic areas, views of boats, and shallow waters. Has a lua, & water. 
 Have a splendid Holiday Season, and I hope to see you out there!       pau.  Amy Markham
