Print - Flourished Merriment

Jon is a self-trained artist originally from Kaneohe, Hawaii and currently lives and works in Los Angeles, California. Steeped in the natural beauty of O’ahu, Hawai’i, his island upbringing instilled in him Indigenous lessons of appreciation and respect for nature, forming the foundation of his fascination with the natural and wild world, which deeply influences and drives his work.

Flourished Merriment is a joyful spirit that cheers and laughter, awakening nature even in the deepest of winter slumber. He is the force that carries life through dormancy to thrive another day. Can you hear his cheerful bellow? This painting is part of a series that explores nature as divine beings. Many indigenous cultures saw god in nature and this series seeks to rekindle that reverence and respect for nature.
