about
Lovisa
Originally from Sweden, Lovisa studied fashion in Italy and NYC before moving to Maui. Inspired by the everyday magic of Hawaii life, Lovisa's watercolor illustrations are playful, vibrant, and filled with color and movement.
"Watercolor has a luminous quality, it’s unruly and perfectly imperfect. When using it, You have to go with the flow." ~ Lovisa Oliv
New art inspired by old traditions.
"Ulua shore fishing is a subculture of the local community... Setting up at sunset to fish all night long, with some island music while crashing waves fill the air. With bells hanging and Ti leaf for good luck, shore fishing is a way to pass down skills and traditions."
~ Lovisa Oliv
