Joseph Nawahi was one of the very few native Hawaiians attracted to painting and drawing prior to the twentieth century and his paintings are almost the only native works to have survived. Born in Puna on the island of Hawaii, Nawahi became a respected lawyer and politician and before the overthrow of the Hawaiian monarchy in 1893, was a member of Queen Liliuokalani's cabinet! Nawahi is best known for his splendid Hawaiian landscapes and captivating realist images of Hawaiin volcanoes. A total Renaissance man, Nawahi has been described as Hawaii’s “Ben Franklin” in his importance to their history. With oil paint and an easel, Nawahi painted his fame right into our own Art Street Café- with the newest addition to our Panini menu: The Nawahi, in honor of this talented, Hawaiin artist.

FRIDA KAHLO (1907-1954)
Mexican Painter

Kahlo was one of four daughters born to a Hungarian-Jewish father and a Spanish and Mexican Indian mother. After surviving polio, Kahlo entered a premedical school at the age of fifteen. However, her plans of working in the medical field ended three years later after becoming seriously injured in a bus accident three years. Kahlo suffered from injuries in her back, collarbone, ribs, pelvis, shoulder, and feet, which resulted in spending over a year in bed and over 30 operations. Kahlo suffered from the pain for the remainder of her life and died from complications when she was 47 years old.
Frida started her painting career with oils. Her paintings consisted of mostly self-portraits and still lifes and were filled with bright colors and flattened forms of the Mexican folk art that she loved.
