Aloha and welcome back to the Honolulu Altered Books Group Blog.
We hope everybody had a happy and healthful holiday season.
We had quite a turn out of very high caliber art for this month's meeting.It was good to see all of our local artist as well as our Island girl Pam Yee, here for her annual visit to our beautiful island.
We have a lot of art for your viewing pleasure so go get a cold drink (west coast) or a hot beverage (east coast) and enjoy this collection of altered art.
Art is made to disturb. Science reassures. There is only one valuable thing in art: the thing you cannot explain.
