The Majesty of Honopu Valley LIMITED-EDITION CANVAS GICLEE

Inspired by my time touring and exploring the NaPali coast of Kauai. Honopu valley, also known as the “Valley of the Lost Tribe,” is considered a deeply spiritual place, known to have once housed temples and burial grounds. Legend has it that this valley was home to the last of the Menehune, a mythical people who some say inhabited the islands before the Polynesians landed. Just staring up and into the valley, I was overcome with reverence. There is a majesty to this remarkable place that can only be felt by being there. This was the first of the series to be painted. I had to abandon control of certain elements of my style and open myself up to a bolder looser expression of the brushstroke and subject matter. It was a lesson in moment by moment letting go of control and at the same time, an embracing of both deliberate and spontaneous laying in of color. I felt free and nervous and excited and anxious and grateful all at the same time. Our Signed and Numbered Canvas Giclees are printed on canvas and are the same size as the original painting. By printing on canvas, the colors achieved are bright and vivid, mirroring the intensity of Grant's originals. Our canvas giclees are stretched on heavy duty stretcher bars and are museum wrapped (the painting continues around the sides), adding a three dimensional studio feel and creating the option to hang them unframed for a more contemporary look. Each one is signed on the front and signed and numbered on the back. Our Signed and Numbered Canvas Giclee are in an edition of 100 (there are only 100 ever made).
