Honu dreams

$6,000.00

Right before I moved to O’ahu, Sting released his album “Dream of the blue turtles”, that cassette tape played on my walkman during that 16 hour journey to the island. Took me a while to spot the first one, actually there seemed to be a lot less Honus back then than now. Back then they were declared a protected species in the State of Hawai’i, and thanks to that is that we can see so many more of them today. This piece was inspired by my many encounters with these wonderful creatures on the West side of the island.

This board is on display and can be seen at the Four Seasons O’ahu, in Ko Olina.

Description

Original art on surfboard, shaped on a polyurethane blank, laminated with polyester resin and sanded finished. The board was painted using acrylic inks on top of the finished board and glossed with an acrylic varnish using a technique that the artist developed in the mid eighties.

5′ 5″ x 22″  x 2.5″ comes with easy to install steel hanging brackets, and includes free shipping.

Although the surfboard shape is meant to be functional, it is not meant to be surfed on, but to be displayed indoors as an art piece and as with any other art piece it is best to keep it away from sunlight.
