Christie painting a realalistic mural in a massage studio

Aloha! I’m Christie the artist behind Aloha Murals.

Art has always been the vibrant thread woven through the fabric of my life, intricately entwined with my love for nature, adventure, and the connections I forge with people and cultures. Growing up in the stunning landscapes of Lake Tahoe, I was surrounded by inspiration—from the breathtaking mountains to the exhilarating rush of sports. This duality of passion fueled my creativity, guiding me on my journey as an artist.

Influenced by my grandmother, an artist in her own right, I began my artistic journey at a young age, creating my first mural at eleven—a moment that sparked a lifelong commitment to art. Each brushstroke I make is a tribute to my experiences and inspirations whether it's the thrill of snowboarding across the globe or the serenity of my home in Kauai. The colors and textures I explore reflect not only what I see but also what I feel, celebrating the beauty in every moment. Throughout my eleven-year professional snowboarding career, I traveled the world, immersing myself in diverse cultures and landscapes that continuously inspire my work. My art is a culmination of these adventures, a dialogue between the vibrant energy of sports and the tranquil allure of nature. From oils and watercolors to large murals and airbrushing, I embrace various mediums to translate my experiences into visual narratives that resonate with others. Today, I invite you to join me on this artistic journey. My studio is a sanctuary where creativity flows freely, and I find joy in transforming spaces into expressions of life and beauty. Whether I'm painting a mural on-site or crafting art in my studio, every piece carries a story, a connection to the world that surrounds us. I am grateful for the collectors who appreciate my work and the opportunity to share a glimpse of my journey with you. Let’s celebrate the magic of art together, for it is in this celebration that we truly come alive
