Drawing and painting with acrylic inks in the Moleskine. http://www.lindabachrach.com

The Academy Art Center is part of the Honolulu Academy of Arts and I have taken many different types of art classes here. It is a beautiful piece of architecture and the front steps are actually semicircular. However mine didn’t come out that way!
I believe it is built with blocks of coral, like many of our other older buildings.

Quick sketches of my dear cats done while I was visiting them in San Francisco. They are Burmese half-brothers and are joined at the hip. Tofu is platinum and Bogie is a chocolate champagne.

This was an unseasonably warm day in San Francisco and I caught this runner cooling down after his 4 mile run to the Golden Gate Bridge and back. This jogging path is more beautiful now since it has been landscaped and made into a beautiful wetlands area, complete with a warming hut out near the bridge for the much needed cup of java.

As some of you may know, sake is not aged. Our dear friends gave us this precious gift of 20 year old sake and we saved a special evening to enjoy it. But alas, it was undrinkable! It was a pretty bottle with an elegant label though and I enjoyed drawing it. It’s the thought that counts! http://www.lindabachrach.com

This page is a result of a morning walk into Waikiki where I was attracted to the jumpsuit in the BEBE Store, and on the way back I met these strange looking black chickens and roosters in Kapiolani Park. The one with the yellow feathers was quite regal.

This small statue I found hidden in a hedge just in front of 2999 Kalakaua Ave. apartment building.

A charming little tea shop in the Kinokuniya Building of Japantown, San Francisco. The only walls were movable shoji screens.
