Lanakai Beach on the North Shore of Oahu
I painted here my first day in Hawaii! Lovely white sands and turquoise waters...God's handiwork spread out before me was breathtakingly beautiful!
About Me
- Cre8tivCoreen
- Rochester, New York
- As a member of the Genesee Valley Plein Air Painters, I paint year round in the Genesee Valley region of upstate New York. Inspired by the beauty of all of God's creation, I find an inner peace while painting. From a single flower in bloom, to a cascading waterfall, I find I'm drawn to nature's visual treasures and am continually inspired by the Creator's Hand. Blessed with a recent trip to Hawaii, I painted some unbelievably lovely beaches, including Lanakai and Polo Beaches on Maui, and Waikiki Beach on Oahu. I plan to post some of my pastels and watercolors on my blogspace. My loves include my dear husband of 30 years, my three wonderful children, my family and my dear friends, and most especially my loving Heavenly Father! My passion is painting directly from nature... for all of creation reflects God's Glory! Psalm 19

Painted this past May in Honolulu, Hawaii!
Lovely Lanakai Beach on Oahu's North Shore
My first day in Hawaii I drove up to the North Shore, and found this lovely beach. I plunked myself down and painted a little piece of paradise!
Haleakala Crater, Maui
Haleakala Crater edge view
The view from the craters edge was awesome! It looks like a moonscape..so wild and vast and untouched....
Haleakala Sunset
The view from atop Haleakala Crater looking down 10,000 feet to the shoreline of South Maui was spectacular!
Rochester's High Falls
This is a pastel painting I did of the High Falls in downtown Rochester, earlier this Spring. I painted it from the Pont de Rennes Bridge overlook!

Winter's repose
This pastel was painted at Mount Hope Cemetery on a frosty morn in January.
A Winter's Day at Old Chili Mills
It was a blustery winters day, so I had to paint quick or freeze! I was intrigued with the cool minty green tint to the snow. I loved how the colors all worked so well together in this painting...but it was probably the most difficult weather I've ever tried to paint in! Brrrr!
Honeoye Falls Reflections
Painted in pastel on a bitter cold January morning! The colors in the reflections, the old mill, and the sky were so gorgeous, they kept me engaged, even though my toes and fingers were growing numb!
Stryker Road Pastorale
I drove for hours looking for someplace to paint...and finally, with only 1 hour left before I had to get home (it was Halloween and I still had to carve my pumpkins!) I managed to pull off this painting of a lovely old farm with a crop of newly grown winter wheat covering the fields on Stryker Road! The owner had died suddenly just the day before! What a strange mix of events....
