A beautiful day to fly a kite, on the Motu of Maeva, in Huahine French Polynesia! The UO is a traditional Pacific islander sport, to prove you are a "warrior" you create and race your giant kite. Those things can take off fingers! Huahine hosts kite racing contests fairly regularly, to encourage the rebirth of this sport. The locals take it very seriously, with a jury and various qualifications, and of course prizes... The word on the kite in my painting is OTAHA, meaning the frigate bird. It was such a gorgeous breezy day, bright and sunny like Tahiti is reputed to be, with the most amazing blues in the lagoon and ocean along the beach. I have a whole series of these in my head, lined up as future paintings. This is painted in oils on a slightly coarse linen canvas.

French Polynesia
I am a painter living on the south sea island of Huahine, in French Polynesia. I work primarily in oils on linen or canvas, but also in water media, pastels, and ink, and mixed media. I was born with a penchant for painting, and have been lucky enough to also be endowed with a will to stay on that path against all odds. My life path has been rich and varied and has contributed always to my development as an artist-being-human. I hope I get to live at least 500 years because I have enough inspiration and projects to last that long!
