Right now at my art studio
Before a painting reveals itself over a blank canvas, there must be a burst of inspiration that tells a very specific story. It has it's own feelings, colors and energy, it's own vibration. My roll as an artist, is to be able to get quiet enough to recognize that, let it flow when it shows up, and do the best of my ability to not interupt it with thoughts and judgments.
What inspire YOU?
Find that and let it shine through your life.
Everything starts with a white canvas

Alicia Mosteller
I love... LOVE Michal’s art and other products!!! Her store in Hanalei is wonderful!! Make sure you really do call her if she’s not there... It’s an experience!! My husband and I LOVE using her beach towels AND they are amazingly vibrant!!! Her products are made with only the best quality. We left Kaua’i and came back home to Florida and I was sorry I hadn’t bought one of her tote bags for pool, beach, etc....... But no worries! I was able to order from her website and have it delivered very quickly right to my home! Now I’m thinking about pillow covers too!! VERY talented artist!!!

My favorite place to visit is Kaua’i and Michal’s art takes me back there! I have a beautiful matted print of “Hawaiian Love” and recently ordered her canvas tote in “Radiant Weekend”. The tote worked perfectly as a carry-on as well as a beach tote. Aloha and mahalo Michal!

I simply can’t say enough about how much I love Michal & her art studio in Hanalei! If you find yourself on Kauai her studio is a definite must on your list of places to shop. Such a talented artist with the most welcoming & sweet personality who makes you feel like a friend from the moment you walk into her shop.
From her beautiful, vibrant colored bikinis to the softest kauai color inspired throw blankets, be prepared to want one of everything you see! I have her bikinis, pillow covers, throw blankets & just recently have purchased her silky beach pareos which compliment her bikinis beautifully.

Michal and her art studio are amazing. I love her energy and you feel the love, Aloha, and light through all of her products and art. Her swimwear is amazing. I own several pieces that I have collected over the years. It feels like a second layer of skin. I get so many compliments when I wear her pieces. Plus her blankets and towels are amazing and soft. If you go to Kauai her shop is a must in Hanalei. Once you meet her you will be hooked!! If you can’t go- order online!! You won’t be sorry!

I've been buying stuff from Michal for years. I decided to treat myself and I bought the Hanalei Morning shower curtain as my one piece of art that I can enjoy everyday. It is absolutely beautiful just like Michal...such a beautiful person. Her happy, positive energy and vibe is so contagious and addictive.
Jennifer Garrison
Michal’s art is extraordinary. She takes her vibrant vision of the tropical world and transfers it to bathing suits, sarongs, towels, bags etc...you see her art and you are transformed to a colorful and happy world. We were fortunate to meet her in her studio and loved her energy. Do not miss the opportunity to see her creations in person!

Not only is Michal's work STUNNING, but she is incredibly welcoming when you visit her shop! I booked a private appointment to visit her shop and she dedicated nearly 2 hours to helping me and my friend find the perfect items! We were both looking for swimsuits, and Michal helped both of us find the suit that felt the best on our bodies. She designs her suits in the most buttery soft material that is SO FLATTERING, and each cut lays different — so there is no doubt you will find a fit that you love! I also bought some lovely gifts to bring home for my mom, including a BEAUTIFUL cutting board that I wish I had bought for myself. :)
Visiting Michal's shop was a highlight of our trip and we left with a new friendship on the island.
Thank you Michal!

Should you be fortunate enough to find yourself on the island of Kauai you must make your way to Hanalei to find Michal’s art studio and shop. All of Michal’s work reflects the vibrant beauty of Kauai and the beauty in her heart. Be prepared to feel overwhelmed by Michal’s magic. Whether you choose a magnificent painting, a warming blanket, a beach towel or a mug to bring home you will discover that it inspires you to appreciate and to preserve all that is wonderful and beautiful in this world every time you see it.
Rachel Allen
Michal’s art is truly something special and anyone who has the opportunity to own any of her pieces get to enjoy all the vibrant colors and warmth of the islands. It may be winter over here in Northern California, but the beautiful hues of color in her art add sunshine to any space. I love her energy and genuine kindness towards those she shares her art with. Every customer is treated with care and she is always very quick to respond to questions and help if needed. Your an amazing and beautiful soul Michal

I am so happy to have found and stopped by Michal’s studio and store. The paintings and goods were even more vibrant when seen in person than online. They really provide a sense of Kauai’s allure, adventure and calm at the same time. If possible make an appointment and visit the store (see her website for info). It was so lovely to meet Michal and see other works she is creating. Let her work remind you to love and embrace life!
Nancy Schneider
I had the pleasure of meeting Michal at her art studio & boutique in Hanalei yesterday. I highly encourage everyone to visit her place when in Hanalei. She is an amazing artist and captures the beauty of the island in bold & bright colors. Her paintings are such an inspiration. She is a lovely woman who made time for a fan to meet her!
Rosemary Brunin
Michal is such a down to earth and beautiful soul! I instantly became in love with her design elements. She incorporates a vibrant appeal and her pieces create such dimension that you are immersed into her artwork immediately! I bought tumblers (for myself and close friends), a one piece that is made of immaculate material and fits unlike any other suit I have had! I also ended up buying a cutting board of the Hanalei Pier. I love how looking at each of these pieces brings back wonderful memories of adventure, romance, and relaxation with my partner. Thank you Michal for your beautiful work and for your beautiful soul! (**Whoever is traveling to Kauai should make a stop in her shop to enjoy her company and her artwork!)
