We had so much space! Absolutely Beautiful light, Just the most perfect location in my opinion!  2 doors for great traffic!  See the MAMA PELE TOTES, front left, and all the printed giclees, far right are the gallery wraps.  

 

Much Thanks for all your help Keri & everybody @ the Hui!

Set up & ready to go on Day 1 of Weekend 2 - 2012 Maui Open Studios.  The big, giant rug on the floor was an enormous hit!! We think we may have spoken to over 400 people & met oodles of wonderful contacts & other artists!  It was so amazing for me. I'm still smiling! I could never have done this without my sweet husband (Eric is in the chair) who is my rock, handyman, framer & all around best person.

The Shower Curtains Rocked the HUI!!

The Large format Imprinted shower curtains were a tremendous Hit!  We can do any of my designs on them, made to order!  People really loved these and ordered quite a few!  These made the perfect room divider between Cee (great artist next door) and us.

We had fresh fruit, sangria and munchies....every hour or so, a small "gaggle" or "tribe" of age 5-7 year old little girls with muddy rainboots (It rained all weekend!) would storm through like little indians, eat all the fruit and cookies and leave!, moving out in the opposite direction........very funny!

We had a long couple of days of sharing and talking and standing 10 am - 6 pm. But actually it was up @ 5 am, so I'm having a sit next to my PELES.

This is most of my PELE Series
