JUNE en Plein AIre

Aloha Artists, aloha June!
 June is a interesting month when you consider the weather. It's the beginning of hurricane season, and is considered "summer" by many.  June can present some long lovely days-- and, on the other hand, can pack some serious storm action. So it's a mixed bag. The beginning of each month is started at Wai'uli Beach Park in Keaukaha. Start time is 8am, at every site, every Thursday, artists come and go all day. If you show up to a site, and no one is there, set up and get started-- be the leader. Most likely you won't be solo for long. If you are uncomfortable setting up by yourself, you can otherwise amuse your self by swimming, walking around checking out the location-- or you can sit in your car.  I usually walk around check out the spot, see where I wanna paint, set up. Sometimes I'll go for a swim or clean my palette. Everytime is different. It's good to have a few phone numbers of the other painters. I call around see when the others are planning on showing up.

JUNE/SCHEDULE- every thursday sunrise to sunset and somewhere in between

Drive to the end of Maku'u Road. Turn right, follow Ala Heiau rd to the end, and park. Do not block the dirt road entrance, the fishermen use that shoreline access. It is well worth the drive and is always a wonderful day.
