Ho'omaluhia by Gary Reed Surfboard Print
Ho'omaluhia Metal Surfboard Print is a portrait of O'ahu's windward side in full, lush glory. Hawaiʻi artist Gary Reed captures the dramatic Ko'olau ridgeline rising directly behind Ho'omaluhia Botanical Garden — the fluted green pali pushing skyward, low clouds and mist wrapping the upper peaks, and a vivid red flowering tree blazing in the foreground like a brushstroke of color against all that deep, saturated green. It is one of the most visually striking landscapes on the island, and Reed renders it with the clarity and reverence it deserves.
Also known as a Ho'omaluhia Botanical Garden art print, Ko'olau Mountains landscape wall art, or O'ahu windward landscape photography metal print, this piece captures a side of Hawaiʻi that stops even longtime residents in their tracks. The Ko'olau Mountains — among the most dramatic mountain ridgelines on any island in the Pacific — are at their most theatrical from the valley floor of Ho'omaluhia, where the scale of the pali becomes fully apparent. Gary Reed's composition uses the flowering tree to anchor the eye and lead it upward into the peaks, creating a sense of depth and grandeur that rewards the longer look. Printed using dye-sublimation technology onto a specialty cut ChromaLuxe aluminum panel shaped like a surfboard, the rich greens, misty peaks, vivid red blooms, and layered ridgelines come alive on metal with a depth and detail that makes the scene feel present and immediate.
Ho'omaluhia — GR002 is available in eleven sizes across both landscape and portrait orientations: landscape in 21"×9", 44"×11", 48"×16", 54"×18", and 60"×20", and portrait in 9"×21", 12"×36", 11"×44", 16"×48", 18"×54", and 20"×60". The portrait orientations are especially well-suited to this composition — the mountain ridgeline begs for vertical space. Each print comes ready to hang with eyelets included.
Every print is locally produced in Kapolei, HI — made with aloha, right here in Hawaiʻi.
