Marti's Hibiscus

from $60.00

My neighbor Marti showed me this hibiscus in the dog park. She loved its speckled and bold colors. So I took a picture, printed the image on black-and-white paper, and then proceeded to hand-paint it with precision, staying faithful to the original colors. I employed a different technique for this one, using liquid soap dyes for their vibrant colors. However, some of the hues faded after drying, so I went back and painted over it again with oils for permanence. Prints of the version seen here are made from the original painting with the dyes (the oil-painted version is also available; contact me for inquiries).

All pieces are ready to hang. Framed option includes acid-free white mat in wood grain frame and adds 4 inches on all sides. Custom sizes, frames, commissions, and select originals available upon request. Contact for inquiries

Shipping and taxes vary depending on location. Local pickup available on O‘ahu.
