Artwork description:

Recently I fled the cold Chicago winter for a wonderful visit to Hawaii, where it is always summer. I took this photo while hiking in Oahu, immersed in greenery. So many shades of green surrounded me that was a magical moment. Looking at the beauty of nature in this art creates a peaceful mood.

Yet this beautiful rain forest on Oahu is already threatened by warming air temperatures, which have quadrupled in the past four decades. Meanwhile the cooling trade winds that help bring rain have decreased. Action on climate change must happen now or Hawaii will truly be a paradise lost.

This photo is printed on enhanced matte, archival paper and shipped in a sturdy envelope. If you prefer a larger size photo please use the message link at the bottom, “Ask a question” to contact me. I can also provide prints on canvas.
