Artists Comments: Kikau Point is a painters delight as there is just so many subjects to paint! TodayI was drawn to the boldness of Mauna Kea and the delicate waves lapping against the sandy shoreline. Palm trees and lava rock clusters provided a nice contrast between the foreground and background. I experimented a new technique in creating the palm leaves and am not entirely satisfied with this application. The shoreline however was a great study - this technique is definitely something I would like to duplicate in future paintings.
