Next lei print completed . . . . . The creation of this Hinahina print involved headache-inducing detail:  the work required going through double the amount of pencils, five extra days of drawing / coloring, and three extra days of digital work.  Please see some of the work in progress shots below.  I'm not sure the photo does it justice.  I hope you'll be able to see it in person soon !

Judd Boloker Art @ Art in the Atrium Exhibit

4/25/2021

0 Comments

 
Happy to announce being a part of the first "Art in the Atrium" Exhibit taking place at the Na Lama Kukui Design Center (Formerly the Gentry Pacific Design Center) from April 15 - May 15th.  I'm excited to have my work featured along with Solomon Enos and Jack Soren in this three person exhibit.  I have 10 pieces hanging . . . . a lot of new work, both Haku and Shells.  The atrium is a great place to see them up close and in person !  The center is located at 560 North Nimitz Highway.  It's the perfect excuse to leave your COVID home base behind and look at something besides Netflix . . . .

Judd Boloker Haku Hawaii Art
Summer Haku - Print Number 171
Back to the leis ! . . . . . Summer Haku is the first of three lei prints in progress. Definitely took a long time due to all the detail on this one.  The print is available online and will be in stores soon.  I'm thinking that shows might have to wait until the fall.  

​A special thanks to Haku_Lei_Haleiwa for allowing me to work with her creations.
