Description

“Radiant Wave” is an embellished print from an original oil painting by Maui local artist Rafael Pereda, created in his expressive palette knife impressionism style. The artwork captures the strength and elegance of a pipeline wave as it rises and curls beneath the golden warmth of sunset, with the island of Lānaʻi resting softly in the background.

Rich texture, luminous color, and flowing movement come together to evoke the feeling of a perfect Maui evening — the ocean alive with energy, the sky glowing in soft fire, and the wave carrying the last radiant light of day within its form. The embellished details add depth and shimmer to the print, honoring the tactile beauty of the original oil painting and giving each piece a special, hand-touched presence.

“Radiant Wave” is a poetic tribute to Maui’s ocean: powerful yet peaceful, wild yet graceful, filled with light, memory, and the quiet magic of island life.
