Experimenting with digital. First pass at digital painting of Kanaloa by 808 founder Prime. Based on the many versions of Kanaloa throughout the pacific. The shape shifter had many forms. Octopus, stingray, dolphin, fish, shark..all these forms are incorporated into this piece. The hair was done in "Ehu" from Prime's personal experience on the ocean. "The hair changes color naturally when you are out in the ocean for long periods of time."-prime. The ray on his chest to the kelp from his seaweed beard..everything connects to how we see the ocean today. #808urban #livinglegacyseries #hawaiianart #hawaiianarttherapy #artkiiology
