Kamapuaʻa

24x30 Colored Pencil/Acrylic

Kamapuaʻa is the Hawaiian boar deity who spent the majority of his time pursuing the fire goddess Pele, who just wasn't that into him. Rather than say 'I respect your wishes', he said, 'Too bad' and kept at it. She relented, and their union produced the fertile lands of Hawaii. He can appear as a handsome human or a handsome boar, depending on your personal taste in either.
