Hawaii's Artist Heather Brown Releases 3 New Limited Edition IPhone Cases!

Aloha and Happy Halloween!!!!

I hope everyone is having a great week and is headed for some good safe fun tonite!

I am so pleased to announce that we have just released 3 brand new Limited Edition IPhone cases for the IPhone 4, IPhone 4S, IPhone 5 and IPhone 5S!

A little about the actual case:

All of our cases are made in the U.S.A. from 100% post consumer recycled plastics, printed with an extremely durable high quality ink. The case measures just 1mm thick and helps to protect your IPhone from scratches, dust and low velocity impacts. The light and small sizing of the case eliminates all the extra bulk of so many cases on the market.

My favorite part of the cases is that 15% of the sales of each case go directly to a non-profit that I choose each time we do a new release.

Here are the new cases for Fall 2013!


The "Waimea Falls" IPhone Case comes printed on a black case, we have two models that fit either the IPhone 4 and 4S as well as a case that fits the IPhone 5 and 5S. 15% of all proceeds from the sale of this case will go directly to The Wyland Foundation.

Clicking on any of the images below will take you directly to my website for details and purchasing options.

Heather Brown Japan Fall Tour 2013 Re-Cap

Aloha and Happy Monday!

Well I returned home to Hawaii yesterday and was able to spend a nice relaxing afternoon with Chris since he was not able to make it to Japan on this tour since he had shoulder surgery just a few weeks ago.

I had such a fun tour these past two weeks and want to thank everyone who came out to support my shows around Japan! Also a very big Mahalo to everyone from The Heather Brown Gallery that was there every step of the way at every show to help out and make the shows run so nice and smooth, plus all of the great staffs at The Yokohama Takashimaya, Greenroom Gallery Kamakura and Patagonia Fukuoka who made my shows in their locations so much fun and successful! Mahalo Nui Loa!

It was a whirwind trip with lots of interesting weather (went through my first Typhoon!), always terrific food, trains, taxis, planes and busses, and my favorite part.....Lots and lots of BIG smiles, laughs and ALOHA with such special people at each stop!!

Attached are some pictures from the later part of the tour that I don;t think I shared yet. Mahalo Nui Loa to all of you who have continued to follow and support my art around the World!!

Next show is scheduled for November 21, 2013 at Mu'umu'u Heaven in Kailua, Oahu, this will be a split show with me and Chris (The Captain Surfs)

Heather Brown Fall Your 2013 Update

Aloha Everyone!

I hope you are having a great day! It is rainy rainy rainy here today in Yokohama, so it is a good day to catch up on some rest and paint a bit in my hotel room.

I want to thank everyone who came out to the Yokohama Takashimaya show on Sunday, it was so much fun and I was so happy to meet so many new people and share some Aloha through my art. Thank you also for all of your patience in the long lines, we ended up going a couple of hours later to make sure I had a chance to meet with everyone who came out. Huge Mahalo's to the entire staff at The Yokohama Takashimaya and Heather Brown Gallery that made another event go so smooth and fun!

Here are some pictures from Sunday at Yokohama Takashimaya.

It is always so surreal to walk into a show and see so many people, Mahalo for coming and thank you so much for all of your patience!

Hawaii Surf Artist Heather Brown Releases First Two Inspiration Photos Printed on Wood Panels

Aloha!

I have been so busy gearing up for my upcoming Japan tour and painting lots of new art for the shows! Getting ready to leave on Thursday and I am so excited!

Since I moved to Hawai'i, I have always had a camera of some sort with me to document imagery that inspires me (which is just about everywhere I go in Hawai'i!!) I keep a large file that I look through every few months and while I was looking through them a couple of weeks ago, I thought it would be neat to release some of them to show the actual images I get inspired from when I am painting.

The first two are printed on birch wood panels and framed with reclaimed pine wood by The Captain

I will have them with me on tour in Japan this coming week and I am also releasing them on my website now! (please be patient as the first orders will ship out after October 22, when I return)

Well, I hope you like them, I really love them because I am asked so often "what inspires you" and I have always been much better at visual imagery rather than speaking and writing.

The first one is "Pineapple Truck" this photo was taken on the pineapple road heading down in Haleiwa. The colors and the dust just popped out to me so I stopped the car to get some photo's, and I really loved the feel of this one, it reminds me of the North Shore every time I look at it.

The second is called "My Old Bike" I took this photo at Haleiwa Beach park in about 2004 or so. When I was living right in Haleiwa Town, I used to ride my bike everywhere and find all the little nooks and crannies that made the North Shore special. This photo is dream like to me and I will always remember those times where I had more time in the field researching and less in the studio painting.

Thanks for reading everyone and as always Mahalo Nui Loa (thank you very much) for all of your continued support over the years!
If you are in Japan, please check the previous blog for my upcoming tour dates, places and times. Aloha!!!!

Heather Brown Japan Tour Fall 2013 Schedule

Aloha!

I hope everyone is doing great and sharing the Aloha!

I have been really busy the past few weeks both personally (Chris, The Captain had shoulder surgery a couple of weeks ago, so I have been taking care of him) and professionally, creating the new Heather Brown for Rip Curl 2015 line, creating art for a really special new project (I will tell you what this is as soon as I am allowed!) and painting painting painting for my upcoming Japan tour starting October 12, 2013! I am really excited to get back to Japan and show lot's of new art with a few special surprises, see lots of friends, collectors, fans and fellow artists and enjoy some great food and fun along the way!

Hawaii Artist Heather Brown Japan Fall Tour 2013

The first show on my tour is on Saturday October 12, 2013 at The Heather Brown Gallery in Daikanyama, Tokyo
From there we move on to The Yokohama Takashimaya for a show on Sunday October 13, 2013.
Then a few days to visit galleries and stores that have been supporting my art, then to Osaka for a show at the New Heather Brown Gallery in Minamihorie, Osaka on Saturday October 19, 2013.
My final show of this trip will be a really special one too, this will be my first time showing art in Fukuoka! I will be showing art at The Patagonia Store in Fukuoka on Sunday October 20, 2013 then heading back to Hawaii to gear up for the Triple Crown of Surfing Season on The North Shore!

Here is a sneak peak at one of the special pieces I worked on with The Captain for this tour before he had surgery. I used to do a lot of small sculpting and have not had the time in the recent years but I made a few Birds and Chris made this awesome Bird House from all reclaimed wood and I am so happy to show it in person!
You can find out more about Chris's art and projects at www.TheCaptainSurfs.com or on Facebook Here.
