In anticipation, we're sponsoring a Who's That Artist? quiz. Those who correctly answer all five questions published here this week will be entered in a drawing for tickets to the first tour at 9:30 a.m. Nov. 3. Send all five answers in a single envelope, fax document or e-mail by Oct. 30. (Do not send the answers one at a time.)
Today's quiz question: This well-known artist was born in Oakland, Calif., in 1935 and studied at the Art Center College of Design in Los Angeles. She worked as a mural designer in New York and a graphic designer in San Francisco and Milan, Italy, before moving to Hawai'i in 1963. She left advertising design in 1970 to focus on fine art. Known for her large paintings and murals, this artist says she finds inspiration in the strength, lack of self-consciousness and sensuous beauty of Hawaiian women. Big hint: Her gallery, in Honolulu's Chinatown, opened in 1983. Who is this artist?

Teddy bears at work
Ostensibly, the idea is to honor of President Teddy Roosevelt's birthday weekend, but the effort seems to have no more serious intent than to lighten things up around the shop or office.
