Upcountry Drive

The drive to Haleakala has windy roads, pastureland, old plantation homes, jacaranda trees, Eucalyptus, and other diverse foliage. This drive is one of my favorites of Maui. The energy here with the low bearing cumulus clouds on Haleakala creates shadows on the Volcano mountain. The winding hillsides create gorgeous shadows and fleeting light which is a painters dream of mastering yet, each piece that gets created is another step back from actually catching the light that I am witness too. Thick paint and strong brushstrokes is what I am known for here in Maui.
