Matou Te Fiafia Iinei

 15 x 34" original oil
commission

The title of this painting is Samoan for "We Are Happy Here." I did this painting for a couple who used to live in Samoa. They love the ocean. They are my friends and luckily my neighbors. They have known  me for years, long before I was in galleries, and back when I used to have little shows at my house to start the momentum of artist promotion. It was my pleasure to finally do a little seascape for them, and I'm glad it will bring them a little piece of Samoa. I hope it reminds them of warm beachy afternoons, a state of mind, and being decisive.
