MAUI CELTACEAN © Hamish Burgess 2014.
Signed and numbered Limited Edition Giclée print of 300 on water-colour paper. 11 x 14 inches, plus a white unprinted border.
Original modern Celtic art by Hamish Burgess, this is a re-work of a painting from 2009, spurred on by a request to make it a standard print size. The outlines are all in gold.

The theme is Hawaiian marine life, painted in a Celtic style, inspired by Hamish’s many years as a working scuba-diving instructor in the Caribbean, then Oahu and Maui, seeing these animals on a daily basis.

The piece depicts from the sky into the ocean, starting with the clouds and sun (featuring a triscele). Next is an Hawaiian spinner dolphin (Nai’a), jumping through the waves, and a humbpack whale (Kohola) with her calf.

The jellyfish are being pursued by a green sea turtle (Honu), with a manta ray (Hahalua) nearby, all made with Celtic knots. Two trigger fish (Humuhumunukunukuapua’a), on close look made of modern Celtic knots, are cruising the water column.

Be sure to check out the full underwater scene of my other piece Maui Celtic Ocean, before you buy this one.

All prints signed and numbered by the artist in pencil at the bottom.
The print you receive will not have the artist’s name across it, as in the photo. That is for internet viewing only.
Aloha and mahalo for looking.
