Hawaii, Mountain Landscape,Kauai,Waterfall, Digital Art "WAIMEA CANYON " by Colorado Artist Nancee Jean Busse

This digital painting required 18,883 strokes and 14 hours. Waimea Canyon is on the Hawaiian island of Kauai. The color of the canyon walls reminds me of the canyon colors of western Colorado, which is my home. The contrast is the climate: the lush foliage and humidity on the island of Kauai is lovely! And this viewpoint of Waimea Canyon is an iconic one.

Impressionist Landscape, Mountain Landscape, Trees, Fine Art Oil Painting “Locked in Time” by Colorado Contemporary Fine Artist Jody Ahrens

As we wander through these ancient canyons, we can’t help to wonder what dramas played out right here on this spot eons ago. Was cave-lady Susie jealous because her man flirted with another woman? Was the bead work on her leather dress last year’s style? Did her child disobey and run over by the rattlesnake den? Did they simply have a different version of the same conflicts and irritations we create today?

Impressionist Landscape, Mountain Landscape, Trees, Fine Art Oil Painting “Golden Moments” by Colorado Contemporary Fine Artist Jody Ahrens

The weather can change at a moment’s notice – one minute it is dark and stormy and next the sun is peeking through or glaring hot and clear. In one of the unpredictable sunny moments, I started painting on a white panel, trying to quickly capture the essence of the moment. A white panel gives me the option of using a rubber scraping tool to delicately remove wet paint to indicate white branches and other little accents.
