Latest book to arrive in Honolulu

This is Lorraine Haralson's book. It arrived after our first meeting.

This is another great example of some wonderful artwork to look forward to.

Lorraine's theme is: Free to fly- imaginations, dreams, create, craziness- just be happy!

Art enables us to find ourselves and to lose ourselves at the same time.
