Hawaii Artists Heather Brown and Jake Shimabukuro Collaborate for November 2012 Jake SHimabukuro Hawaii Theatre Show

Aloha!

Hoping everyone had a great weekend (or is still having a long weekend!) A nice one here on the North Shore, some waves, sun, heat and even some VOG from the Big Island.

A couple of years ago I collaborated with Jake Shimabukuro for his Japan "I Love Ukulele" tour which was slated to be one of his first Eco Friendly tours, so we designed water bottles, reusable tote bags and nice organic cotton tees!
Well, a few months ago, I was lucky enough to be contacted again by Jake to take part in a great show that Jake will be producing on his own in hopes to make a yearly event of his idea "Jake Shimabukuro and Friends" at the historic Hawai'i Theatre in Downtown Honolulu. I obviously jumped at the chance to create art for such an epic and historic event right here in Hawai'i!

The show will take place at The Hawai'i Theatre on November 24, 2012 and tickets are available through The Hawaii Theatre

Fall Telluride Trip with Heather Brown

Aloha!

I hope that everyone had a great weekend and is looking forward to an amazing week! My week will be busy busy busy as we just took a few days off when we were in Colorado to relax and enjoy the weather and colors of the fall!

Telluride is a great small town in Southwest Colorado that boasts some of the greatest skiing/snowboarding in Colorado in the winter (which we have enjoyed) and has an unbelievable lineup of festivals and fun throughout the Summer and Fall as well.

We went up to do some business and enjoy some hiking in the mountains, great food and fall weather!

Hawaii Artist Heather Brown Releases 2 New Matted Prints!

Happy Aloha Friday!

I hope everyone had a great week! I am excited to announce that I have just released 2 new matted prints to my collection!

The first was one of my fastest selling limited editions on canvas called "Pipe Dreams"
Pipe Dreams was originally painted from a picture that Chris had taken when we were watching a great day at Pipe from Jamie and Mick lanai. As soon as I saw the picture, I remember running to my easel and getting started on my rendition of the picture and I really loved the final product so I released it last year and now it has been sold out for about 6 months and I have received so many requests to add it to my matted print collection.

Pipe Dreams is available in 2 sizes and as with all of my prints, they are all available framed in one of a kind reclaimed wood frames made from recycled pallet wood and finished with all water based paints and dyes. All of our frames are made here on the North Shore by our good friend Alex Cox and finished off by Chris. You can order frames in 3 sizes here: http://heatherbrownart.com/home.php?gallery=0000030495&set=2&imageid=00724414

We offer so many different colors and looks and when we get an order I generally match the best frame with the image.

The second new print release comes from an original piece of art that I painted a few weeks back. Every Saturday, I have an "out of the box" creating day. Sometimes I paint, sketch, sculpt, print, really create any art that is outside of my box. Sometimes the pieces come out great! ...and sometimes they get painted over or stored in a closet! This one was one of my favorites that have come from my last year of Saturday Art. It made me smile so much whenever I saw it hanging in my studio. I sold the original at a show a few weeks back but luckily for me I had the image scanned prior to that for an upcoming project that we are working on and I thought it would be a great addition to my matted prints. This piece is called "Jungle Giraffe" It is available in all 3 sizes as well as framed!
