New Mucho Aloha Window Painting
For the new window artwork, we wanted to give the feeling of Mucho Aloha without the use of logos or words. We thought that doing a "bad" Hawaiian themed painting that you'd find in a garage sale would be perfect. For the next 3 days, we got to work and dug deep to figure out how to paint.
