Description

The name mahimahi means “very strong” in Hawaiian. One of Hawaii’s most popular fish. The mahimahi (Coryphaena hippurus) is a beautiful sight as it goes flashing through the water, just under the surface at terrific speeds. A beautiful and acrobatic fish that ranges all warm seas. Females have a sloping head, which the Hawaiians refer to as “mahimahi oma”. This mahimahi oma was caught by a neighbor from a kayak off the shore of Maui.

This is a limited edition print created from the original gyotaku titled “Mahimahi (Coryphaena hippurus)”. Each print is matched to the original with meticulous accuracy and created using the finest museum quality archival paper and pigment-based inks, so you can enjoy your artwork for many years to come.

The edges of the paper are deckled, and can be framed either behind a mat or “floated” above a backing to show off the paper’s deckled edge.

Artworks in a limited edition have a set number of prints available. “Mahimahi (Coryphaena hippurus)” comes in a limited edition of only 50 prints.

Each print is signed, numbered, and stamped with my red chop. It will be accompanied with a signed and numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
