Unions in Paradise and The Quan Gallery on Front Street come together to present Cathy Kreger, an accomplished musician from New York with three CDs under her belt. “A voice as clear as cool water, Cathy Kreger delivers an irresistable sound which has earned her a place on stage with world-class acts, including: Bonnie Raitt, David Bromberg, the Band, Patti Larkin, Maria Muldaur, Taj Mahal and Aztec Two-Step. Kreger turns folk, rock, blues, and pop influences into a lyrical and melodic style that is as passionate as it is polished.” One Night only!

This special Art Night performance will feature the sounds of Cathy Kreger and be coupled with a digital art demonstration by acclaimed photo collage artist Carolyn Quan. Cathy will perform from 7:00 - 9:30pm and Carolyn's demonstration will run intermittently from 6:30 - 9:00pm. Enter for free from 6:30 - 7:00pm for the art demonstration.

Rising Sun at Sunset: Expressions of the Japanese Culture • Friday, July 7th, 2006

The artists of The Quan Gallery - Kenn Briner, Brad Huck, Lori Koprowski, Rhonda Aquino, Kirk Kurokawa and Carolyn Quan - unveiled exciting new work inspired by the Japanese culture on July 7th, 2006. This unique show featured work by all of the artists using their own mediums and techniques including photography, mixed-media, encaustic, oil painting, and photo collage. Each artist expressed their own unique vision capturing various moods and expressions that are inspired by the Japanese culture. The show also introduced Maui-born "phenom" painter, Kirk Kurokawa, who has quickly emerged as one of the greatest talents of the local artist community, to the Westside art scene. Kirk is the winner of the prestigious 2006 Schaefer Portrait Challenge and has shown throughout Hawaii in juried shows to great acclaim. To enhance the visual aspect of the show, there was also live Taiko drumming by the Watanabe Taiko Drummers. The Watanabe family has been performing Taiko for almost a century, going as far back as five generations. Guests enjoyed drumming throughout the evening, as well as Japanese pupus and spirits.

Opening Night Celebration
Craig Mullins, Master Hollywood Digital/Concept Artist

Show dates: Friday, January 21st through Tuesday, February 15th

Well-known in Hollywood and in the video gaming industry, digital concept artist Craig Mullins, has been called a “Grand Master” and pioneer in his field. Originally from California, Craig now makes Maui his home, while continuing to create cutting edge concepts for the movie and video gaming industries on the mainland. And for the first time ever, Craig Mullins and his brilliant art will be introduced to the fine art world and the public through his premiere show at Carolyn Quan Gallery on Friday, January 21st,
2005. The show will run for one month.

Trained in traditional painting techniques, Craig began creating his art digitally when he was working for George Lucas’s Industrial Light and Magic a number of years ago. Starting with a blank canvas, he paints with digital paintbrushes and tools in an impressionistic yet highly realistic style like no other. His work includes fantasy worlds for science fiction, historical scenes, conceptual cities, futuristic landscapes, and intriguing human characters. The images are awe-inspiring and should be viewed in person for the full effect.
