Hamakua Painting

Lockey White is an emerging abstract painter living in Hilo, Hawaii. She uses an intuitive method for oil, acrylic and encaustic (wax) original one-of-kind creative and colorful pieces. She rarely knows what she will paint in advance but instead allows her hands to move intuitively while she just “plays with colors” & has fun figuring out what came out after she emerges from her painter’s trance and is done playing. The result is a unique expressionistic style reminiscent of great masters but with a modern multi-media twist that often incorporates natural elements and themes. The resulting style often is multi-layered and three-dimensional, transporting the viewer and providing glimpses into other possible realms.
