Amazing Spray Paint Artist
| Wayne Gabaylo is an amazing spray paint artist located in Honolulu Hawaii in Kings Village. This is Art In Motion! |
![]() | In 1990, he began experimenting in his dad?s garage and invented a unique way to paint using cans of spray paint. Using objects he found in his mom?s kitchen, the self-taught artist soon began combining them all together, (juggling and dancing) to the best of music! He calls his show ?Art-In-Motion,? and for the past several years has been performing and entertaining art lovers in Waikiki. |
Mon Sudoku
| I am indeed not a big fan of sudoku games but this one is nice made (cute little monster icons) and easy to handle! The rules are the same: a monster should appear only once on each row, column and region. Mon Sudoku |

The Golden Age of Travel Posters
![]() | The 1920's and 1930's ushered in an unprecedented era of travel to exotic and romantic destinations. And nowhere was this more clearly expressed than in the travel posters of that time. The Los Angeles Public Library's collection of travel posters perfectly captures this era. With this exhibition, the Library shares its bounty with the public for the first time. |

Zaky Infant Pillow
You know the drill. You?re putting your little one in his crib. He?s asleep ? or ALMOST asleep ? and you?re gently stroking his stomach or patting his bottom.| You slowly stroke his tummy with your hand and rest your hand gently on his body until you feel the gentle breathing of him sleeping?Then?you move your hand ever so slightly, trying to move as slowly as possible so that you don?t wake your sleeping angel, and suddenly ? no matter how slowly or carefully you move -- wail!!! He wakes up? |
|
If you?ve ever wished for a ?hand? to leave behind so that your baby would feel as if you?ve never left the room, your prayers have been answered with the Zaky.
Zaky Infant Pillow - I'm not sure whether this helps ...
