| The Bride Something about Maui draws honeymooners and couples to the island to renew their vows, so it was only inevitable that I painted a bride. My father thinks she looks like Maria Montez, a Hollywood movie star of the 1930’s and 40’s. It took me a whole year to paint this, as I took my time in decorating background of the figure. After framing the painting and dropping it off at the gallery, I was told that within an hour it was sold -- to a Long Island couple.
