The forest floor, under the A’li’i trees in Auwahi Forest Preserve is exceptional; delicate, layered, easy to overlook. Much about this carpet is a reflection of Maui, a rainbow of colors with shapes that echo shells, fish, feathers, clouds and the island of Maui itself etc. From leis, canoes, tools and reforestation, traditional uses of this exceptional indigenous plant rarely point to quiet contemplation of the kaleidoscope under foot.
This painting is 24 x 24 inches, unframed, oil on gallery panel.
