Poli'ahu

Poliʻahu, ka wahine kapu hau anu o Maunakea. Poliʻahu is the goddess of snows; her home is Mauna Kea. - Mary Kawena Pukui   According to Hawaiian legend, Poli’ahu is the oldest daughter of Wākea and Kāne and older sister of Pele. She lives on the highest peak of Mauna Kea on the Island of Hawaii (Big Island) and wears a cloak of fine white kapa that she drapes over the mountain (snow).   Digital illustration hand drawn by JT Ojerio, the artist behind Aloha de Mele. Inspired by Hawaii's beauty, culture, and people, each art piece was created to make a statement, exude good vibes, and spread the aloha spirit. All prints are professionally printed in Honolulu, Hawai'i.   Matted Prints Matted Prints are giclée prints produced with archival inks on cold-press, acid-free paper to ensure print permanence.
