When I visited Hawaii some years ago, the lava from the Kilauea volcano was cool enough to walk on. I set up my easel to paint a view across the moonscape. That’s a van and two scientists at left in the distance.

wow nice painting. If you'd be there painting another one, you'd be using more cad reds and yellows unfortunately.
A painting that bridges the gap between abstract and realism. Well done!

Excellent subject by an exceptional artist! Been there myself and the Islands are inspiring
