A Bit About Me and My Art From Hawaii
I have painted most of my life. I started in Southern California and have traveled and lived in many Southeast Asian countries throughout the years. Many of the places in which I have resided such as Washington (San Juan Island and Orcas Island), central California (Morro Bay and Cayucos), Solana Beach California and Santa Barbara, California have influenced my art. California is where I acquired my education. I have recently moved from the island of Oahu in Hawaii to Southern California. I will be starting a new series of paintings of the California landscapes and seascapes. These paintings are from my life on Oahu and I hope you enjoy them.
Living in Hawaii taught me many things including the "Aloha Spirit", which still lives in the hearts of the people who live here. There was much to see and learn living there, but mostly the beauty, the incredible light and the delicate balance that maintains the diversity of life there, all of which I found inspiring. The beaches in Hawaii are so beautiful, it is hard not to become inspired. The Hawaiian glow that appears in the mornings after a rain, bathes a room in color. I loved those Hawaiian moments and used them in my paintings.
Thank you for visiting my website, I hope you enjoy these paintings as much as I have enjoyed painting them.
Sincerely,
Robin R. Ryan
