This is always a most favorite event each Vans Triple Crown of Surfing season on the North Shore of Oahu and it help what we all love the most, the Ocean and our Earths waterways!!

Hawaii Surf Artist Heather Brown releases 2 brand new limited edition canvasses!

Happy ALOHA Friday!!

I hope you all had a great week and are looking forward to an even better weekend!! It has been such a great week here on the North Shore with lots of new swells and beautiful weather!

I am happy to announce that our (Chris and I's) little company, Heather Brown Art, has been chosen to win the Hawai'i based business award for the 2015 John Kelly Awards hosted by The Surfrider Foundation to be held on November 14, 2015 at Waimea Valley. You can find information and tickets for this great event here: 2015 John Kelly Awards by Surfrider Foundation Oahu
We are beyond thrilled to be acknowledged for our efforts in keeping our Hawai'i company earth and ocean friendly. We have worked tirelessly for years to change the business paradigm and prove to ourselves and others that you can run a successful business and be a conscious human being at the same time. Mahalo Surfrider!!

I was also honored to be asked to create the art again for the event. This year's theme is Sacred Places  and for this years art I painted a piece of the Moli'i Fishpond located on the East side of Oahu. Moli'i is one of only 4 original fishponds left on Oahu and is thought to be here from the earliest Hawaiian settlements on Oahu. It is such a beautiful and serene area and I am so happy to work with organizations around the World that fight to protect these sacred places for future generations to enjoy.

The second new release is called "Surf N Sea" With 2015 being the 50th anniversary of the famous Haleiwa Surf N Sea Surf Shop I wanted to capture the feeling that I have when I drive by this classic shop. It is such a fun shop with such great people and just driving by and seeing the bright yellow exterior and surfboards lining the exterior walls makes me happy!

Heather Brown Teams up with Surfrider Foundation Oahu for the 2012 John Kelly Awards

Aloha!

Wow, winter has begun here on The North Shore of Oahu! The past few days the temperature has dropped, the trades are back and straightened out in their wintertime deal and the swells have been blessing us a couple times a week! I love the fall/early winter season in Hawai'i, the changes in the temperatures and swell patterns and seeing friends from around the world come back for another season.

The kick off to me is always the Surfrider Foundation's annual John Kelly Awards held at Waimea Valley on the North Shore of Oahu.

You can read more about John Kelly, The Surfrider Foundation and the event by following this link here: http://ww2.surfrider.org/oahu/?p=1582

I have been deeply involved with The Surfrider Foundation for many years and am always looking for more ways to help out and I was honored to be asked to create the poster art for this years event, The 10th Annual John Kelly Environmental Awards!!

If you are on Oahu, you should really try and get to the event this Saturday, November 17, 2012 at Waimea Valley, contact for tickets is on the poster. Besides acknowledging the recipients of this prestigious award, there is great food, music and a silent auction with great local art, products and more!

Hope to see you there!
