Isaac Kepookalani Hale Beach Park Pohoiki Hawai'i artwork portrays a tropical scene dominated by a dense grove of palm trees. Amid the verdant greenery, there is a red-roofed structure with walls that alternate between red and natural wood tones, suggesting a rustic dwelling or shed. The sky overhead is a dynamic display of swirling grey clouds that transition to a soft yellow near the horizon, hinting at a setting or rising sun. In the foreground, a gentle beach with golden sand meets a rocky shoreline, where the ocean's edge is depicted with frothy blue waves lapping at the land. The contrast between the tranquil palm grove and the more dynamic sky and ocean imbues the scene with a sense of serene beauty balanced with the powerful elements of nature.

"Isaac Kepo'Ookalani Beach Park Pohoiki Hawaii" I'm extremely mindful of the importance of Pohoiki for local people and, as with everything related to Kilauea’s current, past, and future eruption. Painting "Isaac Kepo'Okalani Beach Park Hawaii Pohoiki with clouds of vog, remembering the day Martha and I visited this enchanting beach. As the Lava from Kilauea volcano’s lower East Rift Zone fissure 8 continued to inch its way along the lower Puna coastline toward Isaac Hale Beach Park and Pohoiki boat ramp I started on the painting, thinking that's the end of the park. Lamenting the imminent loss of the recreational area, popular for fishing, boating, surfing, and other ocean activities. Working with the scene I was having a hard time getting the boat ramp in with the right perspectives because of canvas size. That very week fissure 8, Ahuʻailāʻau (Hawaii name for fissure eight) stopped putting out lava which saved Isaac Hale State Beach and Pohoiki. So I finished up the painting with a lagoon, not knowing what going to happening with the park. By the next week on 8.15.2018, latest news was that the harbor was being encircled by a black sand bar with a beach closing off the harbor and making a new lagoon. I'm not saying, but truly it's totally strange.
