"Conscious Plumage"
"Silent Witness"
"Catch of the Day"
"A Real Eye Opener"
"It's Not Nice to Fool Mother Nature"
These five pieces of art were created using marine debris (plastics, fishing nets, rope, etc.) that was collected by our Kauai Surfrider Foundation on the beaches of Kauai and are on display at the Kauai Society of Artists "Washed Up" show until June 28, 2024. The gallery is located at Kukui Grove Shopping Center in Lihue and hours are daily 12 noon to 6pm (Fridays until 7pm). Come see what the artists created using ocean debris. Art is for sale and is a great way to get some of the plastics out of the ocean and landfills.
My art collection is all about awareness. You will see eyes in every piece which is a reminder of being mindful of the huge problem of ocean pollution we have right now.
Here are a few step-by-step examples of how I built my paintings using beach debris and acrylic paints:
And some videos to give you a closer look at each piece:
Hope you have enjoyed the art!!
