Hawaii Fluid Art was founded by Maya Ratcliff, an artist with a passion for helping others. Maya began her art career by assisting individuals with brain injuries, using art as a therapeutic tool to unlock their creative potential. Through this journey, she developed a proprietary method of fluid art using acrylic paints and a special pouring medium.

Working initially from her home and local resorts, Maya's innovative technique quickly gained popularity. The joy and satisfaction her students felt as they created their own artworks led to an increasing demand for her experiences. This growing interest prompted Maya to open the first Hawaii Fluid Art studio in Waikoloa, HI.
