About this artwork
"Kona Phil" is a mixed media piece done primarily in acrylics, but it also has pastel, spray paint, and ink with high gloss varnish on stretched canvas. While on a trip to Kona, Hawaii, the artist met an interesting local named Phil who talked at length about growing up surfing in Southern California, fighting in Vietnam, working as a teacher in a remote area of Nevada, and ultimately moving to Kona. It was very apparent that Phil had lived a full…
and exciting life and the artist was inspired to do this work based on the impression he made on him in such a short period of time. The piece is done in an expressive style to compliment the energy and life of the subject. This piece is ready to hang with a thin black floater frame. The artwork comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.
