Anyway, it just so happened that we needed a logo for our food truck. I asked if she could do a logo using AI and she said yes. After I gave her an idea of what we were looking for she came up with the logo shown below. We are totally happy with how it came out and would definitely recommend her.

Claire is a great teacher, very patient with the students and made everyone comfortable no matter their artistic ability (or lack thereof in my case). The park class setup was cute and felt very cozy with the cushions and tables. Everything was all set up nicely. I will book many more events, I'm already looking for another day on the calendar!

I bought a window for me and a kaleidoscope for my sister. You have to see it to believe it- pictures really don't do it justice. A little bit of Hawaii home on the mainland.

She had pieces listed that were so unique…read more We visited her studio and was so impressed by her work that we asked her to create a piece for us. What she created was even more than beautiful we could have imagined. Her craftsmanship, attention to detail, and creativity are top notch. We absolutely love what she does and turned into a repeat customer! She is truly an artist who creates beautiful pieces, and we are so happy to have a few of them in our house :)

Something that is becoming a bit of a lost art in Hawaii is getting custom surfboards for wall or…read morehome decorations. Before there used to be a lot of shops who made them but now there are only a few on the island. Surprisingly the one place I was able to find it for a wedding gift was a tattoo shop. The communication between the owners and me was excellent. I was able to tell him exactly what I wanted, he made five different variations of what I was looking for and worked around what I thought looked the best. The turn around was a week but it was well worth the wait. I could've maybe found something in Etsy for cheaper or just bought something from the ABC Store for a gift but a gift that is unique, made by a local artist and you can authentically say I got this from Hawaii is what I think made me decide to go with them and it did not disappoint. If you're looking for omiyage or a gift from Hawaii go to A Rainbow Studio. They will help wrap it up with bubble wrap if you're not a local or are going somewhere.

Panama did a wonderful job on my daughter's jagua tattoo. She chose the jagua instead of a henna…read morebecause she liked the darker stain it leaves compared to the reddish brown. Panama is a true artist. He freehanded his artwork before using the fruit "stain". He was very professional. In the very short time he created beautiful artwork on her hand. I suggest you see him or his fellow artist Yumiko. They are both fantastic! We saw the great work she did on other clients as we were waiting for my daughter's turn. He worked roughly 20 minutes on her hand. Super impressed! They have a variety of books to fit your budget and style. Panama also thoroughly explained what she needed to do to preserve the artwork. You will not be disappointed! Make sure you tip them! The artists' time and talent is unmeasurable! Mahalos Panama and Yumiko!

The few websites that do pop up have broken links and/or email doesn't work. I am originally from HI but live in Seattle now so I was mostly concerned about how I would get my folded cranes to be mounted. Cathy was communicative and clear on when I needed to mail the cranes by, when she would mount them by, and when the framing process would start. She partners with Pictures Plus for framing and was great at explaining the different options for frames/glass over the phone since I wasn't able to be there in-person. I would definitely recommend Cathy's services! Will definitely post a photo once our wedding photos come in.

After folding 1,000 cranes, we were ghosted by the person who'd agreed to put them together for us. With only about a month before our wedding, we got in contact with Cathy. She was immediately responsive, professional, deeply knowledgeable, and SO FAST. We texted about the artwork, signed paperwork, and had the cranes out to her that same day. Within two weeks, we received our finished piece, and were completely mind-blown. It is SUCH a gorgeous piece of art and stunningly put together. And we will have it in time for our wedding next week. Would 100% recommend Cathy over any other crane service out there!
