Kona Coffee – The Ultimate Perk
Coffee has been grown in Hawaii for 150 years, and Kona coffee has long been known as some of the world’s finest. But these days, Kona coffee is meeting a challenge from growers on other islands in the Hawaiian chain who are discovering new and subtle flavors to tempt the finicky palates of coffee lovers. Kauai, Molokai, Maui, and Oahu all have their own versions of the volcanic soil and climatic conditions that make for great coffee, and each offers a distinctive alternative to Kona’s familiar flavor.
The first coffee plants were brought to Hawaii from Rio de Janeiro in 1825 aboard a British warship, the H.M.S. Blonde. Oahu’s chief, Boki, planted them in Honolulu’s Manoa Valley, providing the stock that would later find its ideal climate on the Big Island of Hawaii.

Basic Pastel Painting Color Palette & Materials
Pastel painting is the simplest and purest method of painting using pure color without the addition of medium - essentially, pastels are transparent watercolors. The advantage is that the painting does not suffer the effects of age caused by changes in the medium as in other methods such as oils. One disadvantage is its relative fragility, although if framed under glass and given normal care work paintings will stand the test of age as proven in Master paintings which have survived for 200+ years with their brilliant colors untouched by the years.
The keys to mixing pigments and achieving exactly the color you wanted is dependent on having a basic knowledge of color theory and experience - regardless of the medium you use for painting.
