The Hawaiian goddess Pele in a modern style on canvas (mixed media or as an art print)
In Hawaiian mythology, the goddess Pele stands for fire and the power of volcanoes, meaning destruction and creation at the same time. The fire of the volcanoes destroys, but it can also be the basis for something completely new to be born.
Perhaps you are familiar with these contrasts in your own life: Sometimes something breaks away and you might be sad about it at first, but it was actually good just the way it came about. Something new wanted to start and that was only possible by ending the old first.
In my painting Pele & The Bird, I show Pele's power to destroy and at the same time her healing energy, which is why the green elements were added with spray paint and the golden accents with gold paint. The painting should remind you that you can always reinvent yourself and that something new is born from the ashes.
The painting is part of my Mythology seriesin which I paint figures from ancient legends and myths in a modern setting. I do this deliberately because I want to remind you that there are superpowers in all of us and that the heroes, gods etc. are only a symbol of this. The old legends still live on - even in you! But we can interpret them in a modern way.
This painting was created in several layers using spray paints, acrylic and oil paints. It has a "3D effect" with the gold accents reflecting in the light. You have the choice of ordering the original painting (40×50 cm on canvas) or an art print (also 40×50 cm on canvas, will be printed after ordering). Of course, only the original painting has the unique light reflections due to the colors used. The print may differ in color from the original.

Original painting or art print? You decide
Here you can see a direct comparison of an art print vs. the original, both on canvas. Elements made of a special material, such as textured paste or gold leaf, can of course look different and less vivid in the art print. The canvases of the art prints contain a small amount of polyester and are therefore harder than "real" art canvases. However, the other finishes are very similar to the original.
All canvases have either an enclosed metal hanger (the art prints) or a picture wire attached by me (originals) so that the pictures can easily be hung directly on a nail on the wall.
The fine art prints on paper come unframed, as it is my experience that the taste for picture frames is very individual and they should match the interior. However, if you would like to receive your fine art paper print framed, please contact me instead of booking here via the store. Then I can give you the prices for already framed pictures and order them manually according to your wishes.
