FINE ART JEWELRY OF JOYCE BESUSKO EVERY FRIDAY IN FEBRUARY FROM 12 to 3 PM
About the Artist
Joyce Bezusko’s passion, creativity and strive to find the authentic beauty
within us all, fuels each of her original, custom-designed jewelry
creations.
Surrounded by the ever-changing ocean, calming breezes, majestic mountains,
and lush greenery, Joyce’s spirit is continually renewed within the nature
of her island’s embrace.
With a deep appreciation for retro, and love affair with the “Old Hollywood”
romance of vintage jewelry, Joyce is able to craft a unique and captivating
blend of modern nostalgia.
Joyce’s use of primarily existing materials, maintains her respect for
lowering her carbon footprint, proving beautiful works of art and nature can
coexist.
“The purpose of art is to feed the soul, inspire, and be inspired”

MAUI HANDS GALLERY AT 1169 MAKAWAO AVENUE, MAKAWAO 572-2008
Diana Leone, a professional fine artist of 35 years and well represented by
all four Maui Hands galleries, will be artist-in-residence at the new Maui
Hands in Makawao on Wednesday afternoons; February 1, 8th and 15th from 1:00
to 3:30. Whether you are an artist or a collector, Diana welcomes you to
come watch her paint. Please stop by to talk-story and, perhaps, add a
painting or two to your collection. Commissions are welcome.
ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Diana’s recent works are, intriguingly, more to the abstract than her
previous work. They continue to bring in that incomparable essence of Maui
in the way that she captures both light and value. The artist paints every
day and can be seen painting on the beaches, up-country and around Hana
town. When she is not painting en plein aire, she is painting in her Kihei
studio.
Diana was the winner of the First Place Award at the Plein Aire Painter's of
Hawaii, 2011 open juried show held at Maui Hands, Paia. The dates of the
upcoming 2012 PAPOH show will soon be released.
GALLERY HOURS: 10-6 Daily
