More moai

Acrylic on canvas 2004



I have been fascinated with Rapa Nui since childhood and was finally able to go there in June of 2004. We went in search of moai and met some beautiful, humble people. A piece of me is still there, a family portrait I painted for my friend, Kaje.

Manuia iti iti, munuia paka paka

Iorana, Rapa Nui
