About the Artist...
Frank Oliva
lives in Hawai'i. He draws a great deal of
inspiration for his paintings from what he sees in these
beautiful islands ~ particularly the ocean and the lush
Hawaiian vegetation.
His
Aboriginal series of
paintings on furniture and canvas is unique.
Hundreds of bursting color "dots" bubble on the surface,
and yet the effect evokes peace and a harmony attuned
with nature and with the spirit of the aboriginal world.
|
Frank's work,
whether botanicals, landscapes, or aboriginal
"tacks" reveal his absolute gift of color!
|
 |
|
Every piece is an original;
every piece
is celebration of color! |
|
Frank Oliva is a
member of the
Association of Hawai'i Artists
and the

Paths" was accepted by the

perspectives.
