2022 Kauai Wall Calendars by Marionette Taboniar

These 2022 Kauai wall calendars were lovingly designed by yours truly featuring the alluring scenery, plantation cottages, tropical foliage, and the hula of our beloved Garden Island.   If you are looking for a gift for your favorite "Hawaiiphile", these calendars will bring them sheer joy all 12 months long.  While you are at it, order one for yourself and experience a picture perfect year of Kauai bliss.  With all we've been through these last two years, you deserve it!

Each calendar comes in three different sizes (S,M,L) and is fully customizable.  Choose from 16 unique grid styles, 21 language & culture styles and 4 holiday & event templates.   You can even alter the start date and year.  Wire binding is also available in 7 different colors.   

These calendars are printed on sturdy high-quality paper with vibrant full-color, full-bleed printing.  It's been rumored that several of my art collectors will mat and frame each image in the calendar to enjoy for many years to come!

As an added bonus - if you haven't purchased my calendar designs from last year, they are also now available as a 2022 wall calendar.  Themes are: Kauai Plantation Cottages, Kauai Flowers, Kauai Ocean Life and At the Beach.

Silk Painting Class







I recently taught a few silk painting classes and was really impressed with what my students painted. The above photos are all paintings by my students and many of them have never painted on silk before. Silk painting is so much fun, and I really enjoy teaching it. Mahalo to my students for such lovely work!!!!!!

For more information on my classes, please visit: http://www.kauaiartclasses.blogspot.com/

My next silk painting class will be on Friday, December 10 from 11am-2pm at my Waimea, Kauai studio, Painting Paradise.

Aloha and Have a Great Day,
Marionette

More Scratchboard Art

"Kalalau"

"Tropical Flowers"

"Bird of Paradise"
I just finished these three scratchboard works of art for a local Kauai gallery. The top one, Kalalau, is my favorite, and I chose to leave it black and white. For the bottom two, I added a little color using dry watercolor paint.
Scratchboard is fun, easy, and anybody can do it!
For more information about what Scratchboard Art is, see my previous post: http://kauai-artist.blogspot.com/2008/05/what-is-scratchboard-art.html
I teach Scratchboard Art at my Kauai studio in Waimea Town.
Aloha,
Marionette
