Description
Single Panel version of a Multi Panel painting
I do a lot of three and even four panel painting prints because I like the modern look and it is quite an attractive means to decorate a wall. But not everyone has the wall space for such a long decorative display, and some would prefer the more traditional rectangular painting format. So I have redone most of my multi-panel pieces as single panel rectangle works. Check out other pages of my site to see if I have posted a multi panel version of this painting/print.
Canoe paddling is a popular sport here in Hawaii, where it originated a thousand years ago. I decided to do a couple of versions of ancient Hawaiians paddling their solid Koa canoes off shore of the undeveloped Diamond Head. This is the men paddling as they strain to send their canoe racing through the waves. I am also doing a version of the racing canoe with Wahine (women) paddlers. I used my animation program, Blender to make the models of the Hawaiian men and their traditional decorative Hawaiian items
