Every Friday night in a little town on the west side of Kauai called Hanapepe there is an art walk.  Artists display their wares in the shops and on the streets.  It is a really fun experience.  Not long ago we took the tour of the shops.  There are wonderful artists who work in different mediums.  One artist specializes in a form of batik.  She has taken the art to a whole new level.  Her fabrics look like ripples in the ocean, or fine wood grain.  Totally astounding!  Another artisan crafts exquisite pieces of furniture from local woods, mainly koa.  His pieces belong in a museum.  Plus there are lots of food vendors with specialty foods and sweet treats.

Then we came across an artist who crafts wonderful pieces of art from his photographs.  I had to pick up his card (I wish I had gathered the other artists’ cards as well).  Here is the link to his site:  you will be awestruck by the beauty of Kauai he has captured:  www.hopmanart.com
