Bamboo Babes

Artists: Lunel, Jane and Jennifer

We began the background  using the wall of our house

Our friend Jane had the brilliant idea of creating a free-hanging canvas/mural for Thanksgiving. She and her  partner Doug, are currently in the process of  building their house (The "Jungelo") just down the road from us here in Leilani Estates.

While they are building their house, they have small out buildings they use for a kitchen, bathroom and sleeping. Part of the house has a roof, parts are covered with canvas, so the entertainment area is open to the beautiful surrounding jungle and forest. Our April 26, 2017 blog talks about "two friends who live near a crater" - that's Jane and Doug!  Life on the Edge

Hanging from bamboo pole

Jane's inspiration was to enhance that outdoor experience with a mural to hang in the front open area of their structure. She wanted an impressionistic look -- of bamboo and foliage.

The first use was for Thanksgiving dinner. Jane and a local chef have developed -- a "Jungle to Table Supper Club" that will present monthly epicurean  feasts serving local produce. For this gathering the mural will hang in the entry way and serve as a "wall" for their house -- which currently does not have walls.
