This serigraph includes the blacklight picture light.
The sun sets and tides ebb as the sailing vessels return to port on the big island of Hawaii.
The shadows of emboss whales on pure white paper adds an extra dimension not normally seen in serigraphs.
By stamping hand engraved brass plates onto the invisible luminous serigraph, it leaves an impression that gives a hint of what is to come.
The extra dimension added a new challenge. The serigraph image had to stay in register with the embossing.
The rainbow is first mentioned in the bible as a sign of divine blessings over the earth.
The blessing can also be seen at night. The rare sight of a moonbow, also known as a lunar rainbow or white rainbow, is most easily viewed when the moon is near full. The moon must be low in the sky, to your back. The sky must be dark and of course there must be rain.
Waimea, Hawaii is only one of about four places in the world that frequently feature this phenomenon.
Mark Twain once said, "Buy land, they're not making it any more." When it comes to the Hawaiian Islands, he would be wrong. Over the last 2 years, the Kilauea volcano has caused the island to grow by about 568 acres. Only with “Night Visions” can one experience the brilliance of this great phenomenon as lava flows into the ocean.
