This ‘vertical landscape’ is a love letter to the Hawaiian islands from my family.
From Hawaii’s seafloor to sky, this piece honors the oceanic, terrestrial, and volcanic depths of the Hawaiian archipelago and the voyaging people who are its original people and ongoing stewarads and wisdom keepers. Created using watercolors made in Kauai, it is a living love letter to a beloved place.
As a family with an ongoing connection to Hawaii as settlers and allies, we look to the land and its people for instruction in how to relate with Hawaii in ways that are pono - in integrity.
30% of proceeds from the sale of these prints supports Help Maui Rise , a fundraiser distributing funds to fire-affected families, and I Olu Wailuanui, a courageous effort on Kauai to return disputed lands that once housed the Coco Palms Resort into the stewardship of Hawaiians and the community. I chose these organizations because they are dedicated to immediate and ongoing repair. You can donate to these orgs directly by clicking on the links above.
To provide immediate assistance to displaced Lahaina families, you can send money directly through this vetted GoFundMe.
