Green and blue Painting

Thuy Bui has been painting her entire life. For as long as she can remember her home has been filled with the beautiful floral and Vietnamese landscape artwork of her mother.   Thuy moved to San Francisco to continue her art career and she also began to visit the Hawaiian Islands. The natural beauty and colorful images stayed with her long after she returned to the mainland, compelling her to move to Hawai’i and capture its beauty and culture in her most recent artwork. Thuy’s own unique Hawaiian art combines contemporary watercolors, acrylic and oil with the very traditional materials of rice paper and silk from her native Vietnam. Thuy paints with a quiet passion and emotion. There is a fine line between reality and illusion in her paintings, and it speaks to an ephemeral dreamland that only exists in her deep instinct.
