DECEMBER SCHEDULE EN PLEIN AIR
Aloha December, aloha artists..what a gorgeous month, all the rain, & cheer, it's really a fun time. Check out PAPOH at www.papoh.com.. until December 1st you can get a great rate on membership. It's a wonderful local organization, & really helps you to get hooked up. PAPOH has numerous events throughout the year, & PAPOH prez, Jan Bushart, keeps us informed of shows, contests, & paint outs. I highly recommend becoming a member! Intake for 4th Annual PAPOH Juried Show is Jan. 31st. Check for more info at the "OTHER MUSINGS" section below.
DECEMBER SCHEDULE, EN PLEIN AIRE
2-WAI'ULI BEACH PARK,(AKA Leleiwi) Keaukaha- Wai'uli is our location for every first Thursday of each month, simply because it has never ceased to impress with it's easy charm & amazing views. With brilliant tide pools lapping at soft grass under shade trees,across-the-bay-views, boats, surfers, outrageous ocean, magnificent reflections, & endless sky, Wai'uli really has it all. Paint something new, bring "works in progress" for feedback, or finish up work from other sessions, it's a great time to connect with artists. Kalaniana'ole Ave, to Wai'uli Beach Park, just before Richardson's Beach Park, plenty parking, pavilions, water & a real restroom.
9- KAMAE'E FALLS, U'mau'ma - Virginia Alderson and U’MAU'MA WORLD BOTANICAL GARDENS have generously granted us permission to utilize their grounds for this session. Located on private property with a gorgeous waterfall & expansive rolling hills (usually only available to patrons of the gardens). The location is a flat, exposed plateau, so bring your own shade source. The Botanical Gardens will allow us restroom usage. From Hilo: North up Hamakua Hwy. to mile marker 16, turn left there, follow signs to U’mau’ma Gardens. At the entrance to the gardens, turn mauka (away from the gardens)--follow the road uphill for approx. 1 mile. You will notice signs for Kamae’e Falls. Turn left, follow the "good" dirt road to the waterfall overlook. Bring your own water.
16- RAINBOW FALLS, Hilo – If it's raining, the falls will be pumpin, but no matters, it's always pretty here. The infamous rainbow is usually a morning thing.. gotta have the sunlight hit the falls just so. The major draw back to this site is the tourists, but then, you may see that as an opportunity. This area was once rainforest, so keep in mind that although the rainforest may have thinned out, apparently no one told the rain. Bring suitable gear. From Hilo, take Waianuenue Ave. mauka, follow the hospital signs, look for Rainbow Falls signage, turn accordingly. Bring skeeter spray if you want to explore the trails above the falls.
23- COCONUT ISLAND, MOKU OLA, Hilo- A small island off of Banyan Drive, next to Hilo Hawaiian Hotel, surrounded by turquoise waters & ancient false Kamani, the beautiful ocean views are magic. Accessed by foot bridge, but we usually end up just painting in the parking lot because it's so gorgeous right there. Water & bathrooms available.
30- WAILOA PARK, Hilo – An easy in-town-end-of-the-year location. It’s graceful curvy bridges challenge us, the expansive lawns, freely spreading trees, & calm river water provide a reflective atmosphere. In case of rain, it's an easy escape into a pavilion or under a bridge. From Manono Street enter the park on Piilani St. We usually say "meet in the area of the large pavilion", but you'll find us all about the lawns, painting boats, ducks or other fascinating stuff. Easy access, plenty parking, restrooms, ducks..

NOVEMBER PLEIN AIR SCHEDULE
ALOHA NOVEMBER, ALOHA ARTISTS! Well November's here, along with the season's first big swell-- & I do love a northwest swell. We don't really get the giant waves here on the east side of the Big Island, but it's so fabulous to feel the ocean on my face, & to breathe the heavy salt mists. I recently stood at Scenic Point watching big waves break on Blonde Reef, the white water rolling violently onto the breakwater. Big waves always bring a smile to my mug.
It seems we must constantly familiarize ourselves with this magnificent island that we're so privileged to call home, to keep pace with rapid changes, discover ancient secrets, & admire the aina. As painters, we can hook up with the Kona & Kohala Plein Air groups. It is a wonderful way to visit new locations, revisit old favorite spots, & meet artists! There's plein air groups on every island, but to paint with the other Big Island groups is a simple matter of getting on the email lists & doing the drive. Kona & Kohala groups both paint on Friday...

NOVEMBER SCHEDULE, EN PLEIN AIRE-
every Thurs. 8am, bring your own stuff, no fees
4-WAI'ULI BEACH PARK,(AKA Leleiwi) Keaukaha-Every first Thursday of each month begins here. Wai'uli never stops impressing us with it's easy charm & amazing views. Tide pools & brilliant grasses, shade trees, amazing clouds, across the bay views, boats, surfers, outrageous ocean, & magnificent reflections, it just never quits. Bring "works in progress" for feedback, finish up paintings from other sessions, or start something new. A great time to reconnect with the group & see what's cooking. Kalaniana'ole Ave, to Wai'uli Beach Park, just before Richardson's, plenty parking, pavilions, water & a real restroom.
11- VIRGINIA ALDERSON'S HOUSE, Hamakua– We’ve been invited to paint at a private residence on the ocean swept cliffs at Kolekole! Virginia has graciously opened her lanai & grounds of her home to us. From Hilo: N. up Hwy 11, pass the Kolekole turnoff -over the bridge. Immediately after the bridge-makai side -is Virginia’s gated driveway. Thank you Lynn Nakim for setting this up, Thank you Virginia for your aloha!
18- KING'S LANDING (AKA- Lehia, or Pu'umaile)-It's original name is Lehia, the others are names earned through time.. At the end Kalaniana'ole Ave., just past Richardson's Beach Park, through the yellow metal gate (it'll be open), follow the dirt road along the shoreline to the end, you'll find us tucked under the trees along the shore. Views of pounding surf, wild seas, coastal Ironwoods provide ample shade. Regal Mauna Kea sits proudly before us. Parking, lua, & not much else, bring your own water.
25- BOTTOM OF HAILI STREET AT HILO BUS TERMINAL PARKING LOT- Thanksgiving Day! Not everyone is making or eating a feast..& even if you are, you may still want to take advantage of this rare opportunity to catch Hilo without the hustle & bustle of everyday. The ambiance is amazingly serene. Hopefully Gerald will be back for this, it's become a tradition.

OCTOBER SCHEDULE/en Plein Aire
Aloha October, Aloha Artists!
October is here with a bit of rain,& the return of the lovely trades. Good to remember to weight your easels, & have some rain gear available. The intake for EHCC's Fall Show is Saturday Oct. 30th, 9am- noon, but maybe call first (9615711), EHCC can occasionally be fickle with their scheduling. This years fee's are a bit higher it seems, $20 per entry for members, $30 for non-members. It's wise to enter tho, members from the State Foundation on Culture & The Arts purchasing committee have been known to frequent this show (& buy works) in the past years. Wailoa Art Center is hosting the E Komo Mai show, intake is: 10/30, 10am-3, $10 adult fee, $5 children's fee. This will also be a nice community art exhibit. Meanwhile, En Plein Air Artists, here's what Leslie has aligned up for October...
OCTOBER SCHEDULE, en plein aire-- Every Thursday, 8am, no fees, no humbug
7- WAI'ULI BEACH PARK, Keaukaha (formerly Leleiwi)- Every first Thursday of each month begins here. Wai'uli never stops impressing us with it's easy charm & amazingly morphing views. Tide pools & grasses, shade trees, honu, sea creatures, amazing clouds, across the bay views, boats, surfers, reflections, it just doesn't quit. Bring "works in progress" for feedback by fellow artists, or use it as a time to finish up paintings from other sessions in perfect lighting. A great time to reconnect with the group & see what's cooking. Kalaniana'ole Ave, to Wai'uli Beach Park, just before Richardson's, parking, 5 pavilions & a restroom.
14- ALA HEIAU, Ola'a Puna - Hawaiian Paradise Park. From the Kea'au Pahoa Hwy, turn makai at Maku'u, follow down to the end. At the bottom of Maku'u turn right onto Ala Heiau Rd. follow to the end, park along the road, leaving access for the fishermen's trucks to pull in. Fabulous vistas of coast, tidepools, wind whipped trees, & rowdy surf from the safety of wonderfully shaded cliffs. We love this place! NO facilities, no water.
21-HILO BAYFRONT CANOE LANDING- Hilo Bay Canoe Halau, at Bayfront Beach Park -
Easy access, plenty parking, & beautiful views of Hilo town, the bay, Mauna Kea, colorful canoes parked at the halau along the shoreline. From Kamehameha Avenue, enter the beach park parking lot, makai side between Manono & Pauahi. Portable lua, water available.
28- WAILOA RIVER, MAUKA SIDE– We've painted across the river from this purple building under the enormous banyan tree a few times when we were having Sunday morning sessions. The purple building lends an interesting pop, wild reflections, & the unlikely perspective of an old plantation era building. Views of the Wailoa river, & pond, park greenways. No facilities, but it’s near by Cruisin’ Coffee & Cafe 100, & both have bathrooms. From downtown Hilo, driving towards Puna on Kilauea Ave., just past Aupuni Street & Crusin Coffee, you'll see a parking area situated below the billowing banyan, & next to the landmark purple building.
Another area to park is just behind Home Street Bank.. large shady lawn & multiple views.
