This original print was created back in 2015 and made its debut at the Merrie Monarch Invitational Hawaiian Arts Fair. After a 9 year hiatus, we’re excited to bring back this crowd favorite in exciting new colorways. Although created many 

years ago, the inspiration and moʻolelo remain the same…

 

E na akua, na aumakua, na kupuna.

I call on you to be inspired.

Auhea ‘oe…Hea aku ku’u leo I ka makani…

 

O Li’e,

O Kumokuhali’i,

I ka nahelehele.

 

O Kuolonowao,

O Kukaohi’alaka,

I ka wao kanaka.

 

O wahinenohomauna,

O Kauakuahiwa,

I ke kualono.

 

The embodiment. The kinolau of our pae ‘aina. No other land like mine. From the nahelehele, to the inlandregion of the wao kanaka, to the peak of the kualono.

 

He leo aloha keia I ku’u ‘aina.
