One of my favorite recent collaborations has been with Japanese surf brand, Rikka Femme, whose parent company Murasaki Sports created two lines of artwork surfboards with my designs.

Next they came out with soft tops in two colors featuring my "Paradise" artwork on the underside of the nose in similar dimensions as the previous board.

It is a 24"x30" acrylic on canvas original, featuring some of my favorite tropical leaves (monstera, banana, ferns, palms and colocasia). I would now love to share with you some of the process and inspiration behind my newest piece. Living in Hawaii, I am inspired on a daily basis by all of the incredible tropical leaves that can be found in nearly every outdoor space (even gas stations and parking lots!). Although I have included leaves in many previous paintings, I have never made...
