One of greatest things we can do for our keiki is teach them what we know. We had the opportunity to assist Gyotaku Artist "Crow" Nakamoto at Kaneohe Elementary School demonstrate how to do gyotaku to kindergarden kids. They were so happy and excited to paint fish. One kid asked if she could eat the fish, another told me he goes diving with his dad already, another said he watches our show, Hawaii Skin Diver all the time.
They were so proud and printed then painted their fish with their water colors. This girl Kiyomi's expression says it all. I bet it will be framed on her wall forever.
A big mahalo for Crow and his crew for teaching the kids at Kaneohe Elementary how to do gyotaku. Now is the time to pass it on!
