Mokuluas from Kalama Beach

Mokulua Islands & Lanikai from Kalama Beach Park. This oil painting captures a stunning view of the Mokulua Islands, set against the vibrant waters of Lanikai Beach, as seen from Kalama Beach Park in Kailua, Oahu. The peaceful shoreline stretches out before the viewer, with the twin islands rising dramatically from the turquoise sea, bathed in the soft glow of a Hawaiian afternoon sun. The gentle waves kiss the sand, while the lush greenery of the park offers a serene contrast to the surrounding ocean. Adding life and movement to the scene, a group of windsurfers glides across the water, their sails catching the steady trade winds that are characteristic of this area. The vibrant sails in reds, blues, and yellows stand out against the deep blues of the ocean, adding a dynamic energy to the otherwise calm landscape. Their presence evokes the active, adventurous spirit of Kailua, where the wind and water invite outdoor enthusiasts to enjoy the beauty of this coastal paradise. The distant Mokulua Islands and the shimmering water create a peaceful backdrop for the windsurfers, who embody the harmony between nature and recreation. The warm light of the late afternoon casts long shadows across the beach, and the ever-changing colors of the ocean—from deep blues to aquamarine—reflect the constantly shifting beauty of this unique location. This painting celebrates the serene beauty of Kailua, its natural wonders, and the joyful, free-spirited energy that draws windsurfers and nature lovers alike to Lanikai’s shores. Through this piece, I aim to convey both the tranquility and the active vibrancy that define this beloved Hawaiian paradise.
