How delighted we are to present to you a masterful work by the last of Hawai‘i’s “Roving Rembrandts,” Betty Hay Freeland! Earth, Wind and Fire depicts the drama of the fiery lava eruption atop Kilauea as seen through the o‘hia trees and smoke from the cauldron. Freeland creates a unique view and mystical atmosphere with Mauna Loa looming in the distance as the sunlight breaks through the clouds. With her Hawaiian heritage behind every stroke of the brush and movement of the palette knife, Freeland shares her perspective of a landscape, rich in natural beauty and splendor. Many of her works provide a view into an untouched Hawai‘i. It’s been said that her value as a chronicler of a passing era is immeasurable.
