No.: 21813 ** Price: $3300 ** Size: 36" x 48" ** Inspiration: The "2 Man Canoe of Color" caught my eye as a paintable subject because it was dwarfed by all the larger racing canoes in Kailua, Oahu.

    Ref. No.: 23830 ** Price: $600 ** Size: 12" x 24" ** Inspiration: "Canoes of Kuliouou" was done during the day, and it's equally good to paint a nocturne here, as the area is quite a ways from a lit area, so the stars and moon are shining.

  • Hidden Kualoa
    Ref. No.: 23839 ** Price: $1000 ** Size: 12" x 36" ** Inspiration: "Hidden Kualoa" was painted on a day when I had a lot of patience. When your painting the grays of the mountain when it's in shadow, then when the light opens the sky and shines on the mountain, it's as if nature was saying to me "Is that all the color you've got?" But its good to keep your cool and droll out a little color at a time, to honor nature and my patience.

    Ref. No.: 23492 ** Price: $3300 ** Size: 36" x 48" ** Inspiration: "Kailua Beach Canoe" was done out of sympathy for the small dwarfed canoe among the sleek giant racing canoes.

  • Kaiser Bowls January 2021
    Ref. No.: 34281 ** Price: $3600 ** Size: 36" x 48" ** Medium: Oil on canvas - Chunky Style ** Inspiration: For an artist wanting to painting at Kaiser Bowls, we pray for parking. On smaller wave days, parking is easy. To pull off the 36" x 48" original, I went a day before my class on a Friday (my class was scheduled for Saturday) which gave me time to do an accurate drawing on the canoes to get the right perspective and angle. Kaisers has so many great characteristics and great energy so it's very easy to get distracted. I pride myself on how well I paint canoes so the ultimate compliment is when Anuenue steersman of 51 Molokai'i to Oahu crossings Nappy Napolean, would say, "Looking good, Bradah!" based on a good drawing, I felt good about the painting experience.

I was tired and packed up to leave carrying a wet painting, a back pack and a smaller French easel to mix my paints on. I left behind my larger easel for a 2nd trip but just as i got to my van, a warm and friendly skateboarder dropped that off to me with a big smile. Right on!

It has a power to it, but it also has a quiet nature. It's a great place to chill when the other well-known areas are maxed out with people. A good place to paint.
  • Tidepools 2014 Miniature Hawaii Art Image
    Ref. No.: 23482 ** Price: $SOLD
    Click here to hire / commission Mark N. Brown to paint you a similar image. ** Size: 8" x 10" ** Medium: Oil on canvas ** Inspiration: "Tide Pools" was done from Baby Makapu'u Beach Park or locally called Cockroach Bay. The tide pools are great for families with small children. The surf may be raging at nearby Makapu'u, but it's easy peasy at Baby Makapu'u and a great focal point to paint. More...
  • Tongan Choir
    Ref. No.: 23641 ** Price: $3300 ** Size: 36" x 48" ** Inspiration: I witnessed the Tongan Choir performing at the Kapiolani Bandstand and the colors the singers wore matched the quality of their voices in unison. I did this painting from a photo reference I took.
  • Tree Of Comfort 2014 Miniature Hawaii Art Image
    Ref. No.: 23539 ** Price: $100 ** Size: 6" x 6" ** Inspiration: Tree of comfort is a painting that I did as a warmup before I tackled a 48" x 60" larger painting of the tree and the Pali Cliff in the background, it s work still in progress.
  • Ulu Pono Heiau
    Ref. No.: 24041 ** Price: $800 ** Size: 16" x 20" ** Inspiration: "Ulu Pono Heaiu" is located next to the Kailua YMCA and I remember passing by numerous time. I finally got a chance to paint there and I pay tribute to a group of volunteers who maintain the place and make it what it is today. Mahalo!
  • Use The Mokes To Guide You
    Ref. No.: 23829 ** Price: $600 ** Size: 16" x 20" ** Inspiration: "Use The Mokes To Guide You" was done on a hill top from a great vantage point. I could see all the yellow kayaks paddling away trying to reach the mokes and the wind was doing its best to prevent them. They were using a paddle and all I had was brush, so it was easier for me.
  • Volley Ball Day At Waimea Bay
    Ref. No.: 18407 ** Price: $5500 ** Size: 36" x 80" ** Inspiration: Volley ball day at Waimea Bay is on Wednesday's and I happen to be there with a door panel and my easel. Great youthful energy captured at Waimea Bay at the North Shore. More...
  • Waihole Valley
    Ref. No.: 18417 ** Price: $2800 ** Size: 30" x 40" ** Inspiration: Picturesque view of Waihole Valley in Kaneohe. More...
  • Waihole Valley 2014 Miniature Hawaii Art Image
    Ref. No.: 23537 SOLD ** Price: $100 ** Size: 8" x 8" ** Inspiration: Waihole valley is on the Widward side that has a lot of scenic areas to paint from. I try to use the Waihole Poi Factory to give directions from as landmarks, but as a painter, the Kualoa mountains are the biggest landmark that is easily seen on a clear day.
  • Waikiki Beach 2014 Miniature Hawaii Art Image
    Ref. No.: 23485 ** Price: $SOLD
    Click here to hire / commission Mark N. Brown to paint you a similar image. ** Size: 5" x 7" ** Medium: Oil on canvas ** Limited Edition: No ** Inspiration: "Waikiki Beach" has to be viewed from a distance in order for it to come together visually. It's a lot of information to put on a small canvas but I don't want to reach for a small brush. There's a lot of energy going on at the beach and using a small brush would only diffuse that power.

  • Wailua Pioneer Farms Sunflower Field
    Ref. No.: 23496 SOLD ** Price: $3300 ** Size: 36x48 ** Inspiration: Painting the Wailua Pioneer Farms Sunflowers was done in two sessions out of a need to capture the scene before the sunflowers wilted and were plowed under. The sunflowers only would bloom during a 3-week period and I thank Pioneer Farms and fellow artist Nani for coordinating our artist visit. Being the artist with the most experience, Nani and Linh Tang deferred to me. Should we paint up close or from far? I choose from afar, and did the mountains in the background with the Sunflowers in the mid ground. I later second guessed myself because I reasoned that the mountains would always be there, but not the Sunflowers. But when I returned for my 2 session, I got up close and personal to the Sunflowers and it all fell into place with this painting. More...
  • Waimanalo, Hawaii - April 2015
    Ref. No.: 23836 ** Price: $1000 ** Size: 15" x 30" ** Inspiration: I painted "Waimanalo" when Martin Pahinui was being interviewed about 50 yards in front of me about 2 weeks ago. It was probably for his dad's (Gabby Pops Pahinui) celebration which is today, 4/25/2015. A celebration to honor Gabby at Waimanalo Beach Park with other entertainers. I sometimes sing a song that he liked to sing, "I'm living on easy, with a bottle of whiskey, I have no money to suit my honey." Ahhh the life of an artist!
  • Waimea Bay
    Ref. No.: 24034 ** Price: $1400 ** Size: 18" x 36" ** Inspiration: "Waimea Bay" is one of my favorite painting spots and the lifeguards are the best! There's Mark and Carrie and they walk the sand to keep in shape for winter rescues. The bay that day was calm, and the tree that fronts the tower has Mark's decorative touches with ornaments and a Santa hat. I used this in the painting that decorates the Hawaiian Isle Kona Coffee Christmas bags that come on store shelves in October thru December.
  • Waimea Bay, Hawaii - April 2015
    Ref. No.: 23833 ** Price: $400 ** Size: 11" x 14" ** Inspiration: "Waimea Bay" is probably the smallest version that I have done of this site. Before I used to think that the size of the painting conveyed power, but it has nothing to do with the size. It is being able to lock into the inner strength of a painting, it's mana. In the case of making sure it has strong bones (structure), value and character, I am sure big wave riders can say the same thing about the power of Waimea Bay.
  • West Maui Mountains
    Ref. No.: 18469 ** Price: $600 ** Size: 16" x 20" **
  • Winter Surf At Three Tables
    Ref. No.: 24042 ** Price: $800 ** Size: 16" x 20" ** Inspiration: "Winter Surf At Three Tables" was alive with crashing surf, spray and white foam. It wasn't surfable or rideable but it sure was paintable!
  • Yokohama Beach
    Ref. No.: 18458 ** Price: $1800 ** Size: 24" x 36" **
