Haleiwa Arts Festival 2020 and what i won't be doing this summer

So many gathering will not be possible or healthy to put on this summer.
One of the best outdoor summer events in Hawaii on Oahu island
is the  Haleiwa Art Festival and is a no go i am  very  sad  to say. i 
have set up  for  this juried event for the past  20 years and find it 
a big gap in my life. 
So i will catch up on projects in motion as i usually have a few 
in the works due to my shattered attention and desire to capture 
a bit of a new concept. If you are a friend or past visitor to my colorful booth
and have a request or idea to share, please don't hesitate to email me if you wish 
 So. meanwhile i shall catch up on some books, make salads and ice tea and sit a spell.
i hope you and yours are well and able to navigate the world as we all find each morning.
Gratefully, Sonja

Haleiwa Arts Festival 2018

The Haleiwa Arts Festival 2018
is now less than a month away.....
 so I am preparing fabrics and  projects to share at the 21 th  annual HAF. Lately I  am  sort  of  slow at pulling together concepts, start ups with colorful bits of cloth with intention of  making a solid item to reflect what i was  feeling or thinking; a collection of ideas born out of previous "what ifs" and mind changes, then turning that into something that did not exist  before and that you and I can consider and turn over in our hands.
There is a bit of magic in doing the work. i am a transformer it turns out!!
Great art quote by the famous artist Pablo Picasso. Isn't that the case with all art? We imagine something but in the art process end up creating a completely different drawing?

watching paint dry

cut up, sew, quilt  
make!
Some things only happen once !
as in this notebook cover with its colors and arrangement.





           For a  wonderfully  colorful  day,
save the dates   July 14  and 15  2018
          10 am to 5 pm  on Saturday the 14th
  10 am to 5 pm on Sunday the 15th
