Description

There are four common varieties of Chub found in Hawaii. This species, the Nenue, or Hawaiian chub is endemic to Hawai`i. It makes good poke and can make a quick meal on the beach by simply tossing them in the fire, pealing off the skin, and picking the meat right off the bones. This fish was caught by local spear-fisherman, Ricki Cole.

Original, one-of-a-kind gyotaku printed in the direct method of gyotaku onto beautiful washi paper using an archival, water soluble ink that is PH neutral (acid free). The paper measures 11 inches x 17 inches and has a soft deckled edge.

Signed in pencil and stamped with my red seal in the lower right corner. Comes with a certificate of authenticity.

One of the best ways to protect your artwork from moisture, dust, and UV rays is to frame it under conservation glass or acrylic which has a coating that blocks the UV rays. A mat is optional, as long as the artwork is not in direct contact with the glass.
