Veiled By An 'Ohi'a Lehua Haku Lei Hula Dancer Watercolor Art Print painted by artist Alessandra Jann-Jordan at AJJ Arts

Artist’s inspiration:

When a hula dancer wears a haku flower lei to adorn her head, I see poetry when, as she dances, the haku lei sometimes conceals her gaze. This painting is inspired by the force, intrigue, and mystery that one can sense from such a concealed appearance.
An ‘Ohi’a Lehua flower haku lei was chosen for this image because the ‘ohia tree, endemic in Hawaiʻi, can grow directly in lava rock, emulated by the dark background -- this represents for me the fortitude and resilience I feel when I watch a hula dancer. Strong as lava rock yet balanced and graceful like the delicate lehua flower, a hula dancer moves with awe-inspiring grace.
