"Lucky Humu" framed artist proof
"Lucky Humu" framed artist proof
The Hawaii State fish, the Humuhumunukunukuapua'a. If you live here, you are required to know how to pronounce it. Almost every 5 year old can! This one just looks LUCKY!!! This lucky guy was originally painted in acrylic on canvas.
This canvas measures 8x10 and is set in a very unusual solid wood frame that reminds me of either coral or a sea sponge! The outside dimensions of the frame are 12.5 x 10.5
When I print a limited edition on canvas it is customary to print a few “test runs” to check color, type of canvas, etc. I usually do them smaller, sometimes the same size as the edition, but more often than not they are a quarter to half the size of the original. Any that aren’t up to my standards are destroyed . The ones that do reflect the final issue are noted as an “artist proof”. There are never more than 10 of these, usually less. Also they are usually not a standard size so that is why I have them mounted and custom framed.
