The Story The palapalai pieces began with papermaking. Using unsellable books from the Maui Friends of the Library bookstore, I started creating handmade paper. I continue to experiment adding ground Maui “red dirt” from our yard to color the pages. Looking for ways to print on this textured surface, I remembered the gyotaku technique — the traditional Japanese art of printing fish with sumi ink — that I'd learned about a few years prior when we took my father-in-law deep sea fishing for his birthday. The delicate fronds of palapalai ferns in our yard seemed perfect for experimenting with this method. When the sumi ink prints felt too stark on their own, I introduced watercolors, adding the subtle greens that echo how these ferns appear in the dappled shade of our garden. https://gmarie.art/shop/p/palapalai-no-4 monthly 0.5 2026-09-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67d5d4a337a4b87053bc5946/4effa14e-c4af-4187-9888-7f9f05c85012/Palapalai+No+4.png Shop - Palapalai No. 4 - Palapalai No 4.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67d5d4a337a4b87053bc5946/9c7d9830-96d9-41a5-a09c-025f1389db56/Palapalai+series+2.png Shop - Palapalai No. 4 - Palapalai series 2.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67d5d4a337a4b87053bc5946/e179bab9-2481-4978-bb1b-3a09d19a599c/Palapalai+series+1.png Shop - Palapalai No. 4 - Palapalai series 1.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67d5d4a337a4b87053bc5946/894a52ff-86b3-42bd-aa66-73a18a625805/Palapalai+variations+above+desks.png Shop - Palapalai No. 4 - Palapalai variations above desks.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/67d5d4a337a4b87053bc5946/d2fd2bc0-0f17-4574-8e24-70f1eee1a230/Palapalai+No+4+6x8+w+margin.jpg Shop - Palapalai No. 4 - The Story The palapalai pieces began with papermaking.
