Borders Bookstore, Old Town in Los Gatos.
Michelle Kiba was the headliner act, with her Aloha Style band,
and she played ukelele and singing Hawaiian songs from 8 p.m. to
10 p.m. There, I "unveiled" the completed painting. It
was a wonderful "Aloha" evening! Michelle is the Ukalady.
The progress of the oil painting is shown
below. The painting was inspired by a fabulous photo of Michelle!
