Description

Truly one of the most spectacular shorelines in the world. A collapsed sea cave roof can be seen in the foreground. The large boat gives scale to these imposing sea cliffs. The Nā Pali coast is along the northwest side of Kauaʻi, the oldest inhabited Hawaiian island. The Nā Pali coast itself extends southwest starting at Keʻe Beach extending all the way to Polihale State Park. The pali (cliffs) rise as high as 4,000 feet (1,200 m) above the Pacific Ocean.

This image has been digitally rendered as fine detailed pencil drawing. It reminds me of the delicate "silver point" drawings that I created on gessoed paper using a piece of sterling silver wire while a student at the Art Institute Of Boston. The silver would darken as it oxidized creating a very subtle and soft look. This image looks stunning in the larger sizes, matted and framed.
