Hajime Okuda captured precious memories of mid-century Hawaii with the warmth and luminosity of the great French Impressionists. Drawing upon Monet’s brushwork, Renoir’s colors, and Van Gogh’s expressivity, Okuda’s work ranks chiefly among Hawaii’s great palette-knife painters of the later 20th century. Steeped in a mastery of classical conventions and embracing of novel techniques, he rendered landscapes of great power and depth using rich tones and jeweled highlights.
