I’ve started a series of small paintings and some photographs inspired by the Island of Oahu, they’re available to purchase, let me know is you’re interested.
Measurements are 12”x12” and 4”x4”
Can’t get tired of admiring these beauties. Flora here is gorgeous! I wish nothing but a wonderful season.
I feel incredibly grateful to be able to celebrate my time alive in such a beautiful place with good friends I love, I felt loved and got the blessings of a double rainbow the following morning of my actual birthday.
I couldn’t do everything I had planned because is just impossible to do so much in one day but I took myself to the Botanical Garden in the morning, had ramen for lunch, did some Grocery shopping and I went to my favorite bar at the beach for a Piña Colada.
My favorite part of the day was my time with my friends Luis and Dora and a fun Facetime call with my favorite NY peeps!, we went for Happy Hour at another favorite bar on the North Shore and had dinner at a Tapas restaurant we all tried for the first time.
My mom called, my best friend’s called. Thank you all for the Birthday wishes, YOU ALL MADE ME SMILE…
My dessert was banana empanadas with Vanilla Ice cream
Surfing with mi amiga aDora-da
Michelada the Day after to keep the vibe going
I had to make my favorite lunch from back home, these are called “picadas”
And went to work the following night, thankful for having a job.
Happy Birthday to my dear brother whom is a wonderful human, hardworking, epic father and funny guy, from far away I wish to the stars you’re happy and well,
A rainbow showed up right after our phone call, meant to be for you.
Te quiero Nando.
Perdón que me fuí y no volví.

This is my self protection amulet, my weapon.
In a symbolic way, I wanna use this dagger for stealing someone’s heart and at the same time to protect myself from a broken heart.
I’ve carried this piece from New York to Los Angeles, California, I had it in my lap and sometimes under my seat on the plane, we made it to Laguna where I thought I would move for the winter but there were other plans cooking in the meantime.
I took my dagger to one of my favorite beaches there at Sunset time but I wasn’t happy with how it looked with the orange tones from the sunset and I had no time to try another day so I had to wait a couple months until I got to my final destination and felt good to light it up. Finally February reminded me I had to use it so I could finally cut your chest in half and rip your heart out…
It’s been rainy, it’s been wet and humid, the other day i went swimming under the rain, the waves were crazy but i go into the shallow by the beach, I felt amazing, almost afraid of being there with no one else around me.
one of my favorite days of last summer I was in the water a couple friends under the rain, there was still a ray of sunshine in the sky but mostly cloudy, heavy drops falling, then thunders, beautiful waves, it was so magical, we paddle back out to running away from lighting, it was awesome, i actually rode a wave for a few seconds and then I fell but that day is on the top of my list.
There’s something so beautiful about rain falling over the ocean,
do you agree?
love,
Bombi.
I love this new tiny artworks I’ve paint, they’re 4”X4” I’m currently enjoying my time waking up very early in the am and painting in my porch or at a small gallery where I help.
I dream with a large studio where I can paint big “Distant Island” paintings and make neon artwork but for now I do whatever I can with what I have.
I hope you enjoy checking out my posts,
Teresa.

Me and 2 of my best friends headed to watch one of the most epic surf contests ever and we were enjoying every minute of it.
These are the biggest waves I’ve ever seen in my life to be honest, they were amazing, beautiful, powerful.
I’m so grateful I was able to watch one of the best surfers in the world ride big waves, thank you life so much, it was EPIC! We found a spot by the road instead of getting at the crowded beach and we have binoculars so we watch the surfers close close.
Congratulations Luke Shepardson! #goosebumps
You can see the waves way back on the right side of the photo, believe it or not there was a couple guys surfing those, who were them? WOW
Blessed to have them in my life
“Distant Island” is evolving to bold colors and lots of palm trees.
I fell from the tree looking beautiful, you picked me up to adorn you, the clock started running faster and my time alive was ending soon, I lost my color and my core became weak, I’m sorry I couldn’t stay pretty longer but it was worth to see the ocean, I hope I made you smile while you admired me in your hands.
La plumeria.
This wave changes every time I open my notebook and have paint handy, I wish I have images of how it got to here, it all started with a pencil, then i added some watercolor, pen and this last time was acrylic. Its a small wave but in my head it’s big big big so I named it “Tsunami”.
Esa mirada dice todo
pero al mismo tiempo calla.
Entre besos y sombras
Yo pinto memorias y recuerdos salados.
I love how the palmtrees shadows look on the sand and water, isn’t it pretty?
I’m not the luckiest but once in a while I get a sprinkle of luck, this day I got that, I hope it lasts a little longer.
I saw corals like I’ve never seen before and I swam an ocean I’ve never thought I would, no fear.

If you were seeing this painting anywhere, I don’t think you’d know I painted this, Is something I’ve never done before, I don’t usually use a lot of colors, I love using whites and lavenders with black so I’m surprised of how this one turned out because even tho is not even and is not perfect I do love all the weird elements in it, perhaps nothing really makes sense to you, the house it’s the main focus here, I feel like the inspiration comes from the houses I’ve seen while riding the bus on the route that goes on Kamehameha Highway by Pupukea on the North Shore, all the houses there are right by the ocean, some of them so old and unique, others more modern with asian accents, big and small and surrounded by plants and flowers and lots of palm trees, I guess I collected some of the details i’ve liked and dream about my ideal home. There’s me on the corner right below admiring the mountains and the waves. A clay vase I made, some flowers, a wave, more palm trees and overall just me exploring the brushes and the acrylic palette I have.
