My 7 weeks as artist-in-residence at the Hui No'eau Visual Arts Center on Maui were wonderful. I worked with local elementary school kids doing nudibranch inspired art workshops and carved an aeolid nudibranch sculpture out of five different woods from the island, which will appear in a marine inspired exhibit at the Hui in May along with the kid's artwork. I had a great time with the kids which further reenforced my commitment to use my artwork to help educate and raise awareness of the biodiversity we are losing from our world at such an alarming rate.
