Moku O Keawe
$ 50–$ 1,500This was the second image in the series of paintings that I did for the Moku O Keawe Festival. The monies from these posters were donated to help perpetuate this great event. Moku O Keawe was the original name for the Big Island. It means “Land of Keawe” who was the ruling Chief of the Island at the time. In this image I was trying to capture the Big Islands essence. The three dancers represent the mountains Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa, and Hualala’i. Their lau hala skirts made me think of the waves breaking on the shore or the mists curling around the mountains.
