It looks like there won't be a vacation for us this summer. My daughter, who is starting high school in the fall, wants to march in her school's marching band. They have two weeks of training in August, which is ABSOLUTELY mandatory. There goes our trip to Minnesota to visit relatives and the state fair. She is disappointed, but one can't march and eat soft-serve ice cream at the same time. Life's tough choices. Sigh.
I must console myself by doing lots of vacation-themed paintings, starting with Kauai waves. Do you know that the Hawaiians invented surfing? Winter is apparently the best season for surfing in Hawaii. When we were in Kauai in February, there were high-surf warnings everyday. I saw quite a few surfers at Haena Beach captured in this painting. I don't surf, but it sure was fun to watch surfer dudes in action.

By the way, "Kauai Waves" continues to the 1 1/2"-wide edges for the maximum cool effect!
