Wholesale Hawaii Kawaii Series: Rice Park

Illustrating this made me realize how similar jacaranda season is to sakura season back in Japan. To me they represent spring in the air, fresh starts, childhood innocence… whether its Rice Park, KCC, or another park, cardboard sliding is a friendly alternative to surfing… Growing up in a small place like Maui, when water sports aren’t really you’re thing, you gotta get creative somehow! It doesn’t matter where you are or what you’re doing, its who you’re with that makes the memory so sweet. Mahalo to my English high school teacher @noeyatsu for the awesome idea! I based the two girls on her and a childhood friend. 8x10” image with 11x14” matte framing, comes with plastic sleeve.
