I visited the most spectacular waterfalls in Hawaii years ago, if anyone's been to Oahu you probably know the ones I mean. We watched as divers carefully climbed steep cavernous mountainside and appeared as if like magic through the midst of the waterfall, to take a giant plunge into the watery depths way below. The memory of that spectacular feat has stayed with me ever since, so I couldn't help but think of it again as the green ink started to flow and the composition took shape on this lush alcohol ink piece.  I was reminded of the sometimes seemingly insurmountable trials we all come up against, like those divers climbing steep slippery near impossible rockfaces. If only we all had a little of their bravery to jump freely; no fear, no hesitation... a giant leap of faith through the waterfall.
 
A sumptuous mix of forest and emerald greens, dotted with aqua and turquoise and accented with shimmering gold, this unique artwork is lush and captivating, just like those waterfalls and the memory of them that I carry with me.
 
This requires framing. Mat and frame are NOT INCLUDED. The pics of it insitu are for display purposes only, to give you an idea of how it can look framed. I always recommend framing with museum or UV protectant glass to best preserve the archival quality of the inks. Inks may fade over time if they are hung in a position where direct sunlight is cast, unless framed under protective UV or museum glass.
 
NB: While every effort is made to capture the true colours and details of my artwork, every screen is different and art viewed online does not do my work justice. Slight differences may be evident between a screen image and the true tone of my work which is more vivid and beautiful in reality. Scale may also be slightly off due to the insitu art app used, so please ensure you measure your space. Thank you!
