After six years away from teaching, I am delighted to announce
my return to the classroom at a brand-new art studio in Puhi. I am now offering a variety of workshops, paint and sip nights, and special events designed to inspire creativity and community.
I
am deeply grateful for the 14 years of teaching experience at my
previous location, and I look forward to continuing this journey —
creating new opportunities for artistic exploration, imagination, and
connection.
If you are interested in updates, please email me at artbymarionette@yahoo.com or call or text me at 808-631-9173.
