Growing up in Hawaii and being part of its cycles of life you learn and experience that sometimes its oceans, rivers, forest, and beaches don’t always tell pleasant stories. Living in paradise you realize that landscapes aren’t permanently beautiful, and in some situations neither are the people and there way of life. Like Robert Henri says “there seem to be moments of revelation moments of when we see in transition of one part to another the unification of a whole.” It is these moments that I wish to capture, moments that visitors may never catch a glimpse of. Whether or not these images evoke warm or dark feelings, it’s the relationship with the viewer that is most important. I want my images to network thoughts, reminisce memories, and hopefully, in certain situations, manifest solutions. My artwork is illustrated with paintings, drawings, prints, along with an alliance of raw material, provided by nature, that portray an unseen local color of our Polynesian lifestyle. At times my paintings are meant to be intentional and at the same time ambiguous with a choice for the viewer to make an optimistic or pessimistic decision. I want my work to inspire and offend, and hopefully enlighten the viewer. I want the viewer to achieve a better understanding of a unnoticed world, and I want those who embrace this life style to feel a sense of pride for their enduring culture that seems almost foreign yet truly American.
