Out and About In Waikiki

I remembered at the last minute I had to do a portrait for my friend Nicole's challenge.

There went any chance for a written post, because I'm meeting a good friend

at an informal jam session of music and hula at the Royal Grove.

I'm looking forward to seeing a lot of familiar faces and friends!

My portrait of G. W. F. Hegel based on a photo in Philosophy Now: The Ultimate Guide Issue 7, Ancient Greek Philosophy. For some reason Hegel's portrait spoke to me. No mapping grid this time. I only had 40 minutes of which 20 I spent erasing. 😂

For Tom ~ A Beautiful Mural ~ It is painted in the parking lot of Margaritas where we celebrated our friends' birthdays at 808 Sheridan Street. I could not find any reliable information about the mural or who the artist was. The neighborhood around Sheridan Street and nearby Kaka‘ako has become known for vibrant street art and murals. Business owners will sometimes commission artists to paint murals on their properties. The meaning of the information in the lower left is unknown, except the mural may be called "Blume."

My evening at the Royal Grove with my friends was wonderful.

The songs and dances are not professional, only spontaneous presentations.

One week a few musicians and dancers may come, or, like last night, many.

Each person in turn chooses a song, and everyone plays, sings, or dances.

They all participate for the love of Hawaiian language, music, and dance.

Here is one video I took. The link will take you to the video on YouTube. if the play button doesn't work.

Note: My computer still needs some serious repair work, and I may be without it this week.

Have a great weekend!

Till next time ~
