Tucked in the back of Traditions Coffee Roasters is Icky Love Art Loft and Gallery which is home to 40+ various artists and what a treat to find this gem that's filled with so much beautiful inspiration. The staff here is just incredibly knowledgeable of every single artist and priced that's showcased here with not just who they are but where they're from and is amazing what you'll find in this cozy gallery. The only downside is the long walk up the stairs and even with my horrible knee I just couldn't resist taking a peek as the Tradition Coffee Roasters describes what they have I was just so excited and curious. Here you'll find many items from stickers, wall arts, books, jewelry and beautiful assortment of pottery and so much more! I was told that the owner makes pottery and holds workshops & events right in the shop which is super cool and fun but having a bunch of local artist here in one place is so amazing to support local not found anywhere which I did as I couldn't resist a Hebrew Shell Keychain, a cute bowl I'm planning to put jewelry in which will add some fun character that I love which is brining out the crafty in me but love the find of this unique piece of art. Thank you!

Words cannot describe this artist…read more Genius? Friendly? Free spirit? How about all of this and more! We had the pleasure of meeting and working with him at an event in late January in Kapolei. It was certainly an educational experience which Naoki Hayashi was the master in both teaching keiki's and adults alike, whether it was etiquette or the skill of his craft. My friend remembered his paintings that adorn the Original Roy's (Hawaii Kai) Restaurant lobby area (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=KRN2w_7B09aVEMvE2UQg0g&userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q) and immediately brought his daughter to meet him. When she returned with her artwork, I walked over to find a short line of three adults waiting. When the line became a non-keiki situation, he clearly stated that this activity is meant for keiki's and he would do adults later; being totally understanding, I dropped out and figured it wasn't meant to be. As the event wound down, I noticed more and more adults lining up and taking photos. Looking at my watch, I figured he would probably break down his table and pack up. Guess what? He stayed until every last guest got their fish before calling it a day. As we talked while he coached me (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=vYjsW5dncHvLRLFFJTexnA&userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q), I learned how his passion for his craft led him to this career. You certainly have a greater appreciation for his work and patience after you meet him. Hope to stop by this store next trip to the island.

He was in the front with his BFF & when he realized that people were looking at him, he froze, covered his face, & refused to move THE ENTIRE TIME.

When he joined a cheer team who was going to compete in front of HUNDREDS of people over a weekend, I was more than a little nervous. But my little boy SHINED and loved the whole competition weekend, including the performance part.

I came to Storm for a general reading and received so much more! They provided me incredible insight, They opened my heart and expanded my understanding of self. The awareness that I received from my readings has given me significant clarification surrounding my next steps, especially regarding my family, personal relationships and career path. I felt that Their observations and Their analysis of my reading were extremely beneficial. They were able to intuitively understand my current emotional state, and most importantly help me to understand what the universe needs from me. I would highly recommend a reading by Storm to anyone who can grasp and acknowledge their individuality. What They can do for you will only mean something if you are ready to dive deeper into the cosmos.

I booked a kid private party (minimum 6 painters) for my child's birthday and would definitely recommend PFYS to have something fun for the guests to do! she offers bigger parties too! my kid is already thinking of the next painting to choose from Gwenaelle's gallery to paint for another future event! on the day of the event, PFYS was on time (actually early and I felt bad but she was really good about it). and the kids were so excited to paint! she provided everything and made it so stress-free for everyone - a big sheet to lay out for the kids (she will provide table if needed), all the different color paints, plates, brushes, easels, canvases, aprons, little towels to wipe the brushes, and her friendly personality and amazing art skills with guided step by step instructions so everyone could have a relaxing time painting right on the beach with an amazing view. it was such a wonderful experience and the kids were so happy with the outcome of their paintings and best of all got to sign it and take it home with them! check them out at https://paintforyoursoul.com ! you won't be disappointed.
