This deep red heliconia seem to be flickering flames in the forest, moving upward to the light.

After moving to Maui from Southern California in the late ‘90s, Willow has been active in the Maui art scene and has created some truly unique artworks reflecting the tropical flowers and fruits of the islands. Willow embraces the classic style of oil painting to produce her latest tropical floral works. Her love of Maui, life and nature continues to influence her visions. Seeking the “allness in the smallness” of a flower‘s blossoms, or the turn of a cloud in the sky, her “Seeing ” leads the viewer into a world at peace, a view cherished by collectors of her oil paintings and constructs through out the United States and as far away as Holland, Greece and Australia.
