Boom II, Kilauea Eruption 9:45 a.m., January 28, 2025

I have never had the opportunity to paint a live volcanic eruption. The odds of that ever happening again are astronomically (impossibly) high. I absolutely nailed the whole scene with this, the second of two paintings done en plein air from the "steam Vents" lookout at the crater rim.

While the opportunity to paint this is quite rare, the two paintings I did that morning are without question, my best masterworks.

High quality, full-size, double matted Giclee prints are available at $180 each. 20x24 outside dimension will fit a standard frame molding.
