About this artwork
Inspired by a much needed cool dip in the water after a long day hiking the lava shoreline on the coast of the Big Island of Hawaii. By the time we reached the black sand beach, the sun was setting low in the sky. There’s something ominous and magical about black sand. Perhaps its because it is such a striking color and totally different from the sand on most of the world's beaches. Or perhaps it's the fiery mana of Pele, intense energy manifested…
in the lava that created this sand.
On the water's surface there were spectacular reflections of earthy colored palm trees and blue sky, that all danced and merged with the inky darkness of the black sand just below. As the sun dipped even lower, the orange light reflected off a solitary object on the beach and cast dazzling patterns onto the water, creating an intense fusion of color and contrast. The visual scene was so vibrant and heightened - animated dream, a body buzz of energy came over me, my whole world was alive.
