A memorable view on the way to Hanalei.  I love the island bridges that take you through those luscious green trees and tropical flowers!

Just outside Hanalei, this gorgeous pasture is nestled in the lush hills on the way to Na Pali Coast.  It’s hard to capture the atmospheric beauty the island humidity creates, but this was a joy to paint and relive this cherished moment.   Looks like just another day in paradise for those grazers.

Above the waves...

"I will call upon Your name
And keep my eyes above the waves
when oceans rise
my soul will rest in your embrace
for I am Yours, and You are mine.
