Maui Artist Ed Lane

An oil painting by Maui artist Ed Lane was selected for the 9th Annual American Landscapes, a national open juried exhibition at the Maryland Federation of Art in Annapolis Maryland.  ’Hana Ranch Morning’ (oil on linen 20″ x 50″) will be displayed in the MFA’s Circle Gallery. “I am delighted to be selected for this prestigious show”, said Lane.  ”It’s an opportunity to share the beauty of our island’s landscape to a national audience.”

The Discovery of Beauty, The Expression of Delight, The Art of Exuberance… that is the painting philosophy of Ed Lane, as he searches out dramatic Hawaiian Island vistas, plantation homes, churches, and people. His goal is to share his enthusiasm for Maui and all of the Hawaiian Islands with others through exuberant oil paintings. Ed spends his days either in his Wailea studio or doing plein air paintings in Maui and the other Hawaiian Islands. He has also spent time in Arizona, California, Tahiti, Hungary, and France traveling with his easel and painting supplies, capturing the light, unique colors and vistas of those areas.

His paintings are in private and corporate collections in Maui, Honolulu, California, Arizona, New York, Washington, Illinois, England, Japan, Spain, France and Hungary. He has been selected to be in over 65 juried shows in Hawaii and on the mainland, has received numerous awards in national juried shows and has received reviews by art critics in Honolulu and Maui. In 2001 the Hawaii State Foundation for the Arts purchased a painting for the State Collection.
