Anuenue (Rainbow) is a model of The Big Island of Hawaii in relief showing each of the 5 volcanoes which make up the island. This unique piece of art is hand thrown clay infused with colored mica. Imagery is dry etched through the glaze and then fired with a Naked Raku technique. Colors are enhanced after firing by hand painting acrylic washes and then the piece is sprayed with a UV protectant to ensure a legacy of lasting beauty.
Each vessel is made individually by the artists and is hand thrown and hand painted. Due to this process, each piece is a unique, one of a kind creation, and will vary slightly in size and imagery. Each work is signed and dated with the year of creation.
Wrapped in Rainbows is unique in that the vessel exhibits phosphorescence and will 'glow' in the dark after absorbing UV light rays.
