Living
in California for over 20 years and then on Maui, Hawaii for 13 years,
I arrived at the belief that the original inhabitants of Mexico were
from the same source as the Hawaiians…they just went further
east. Too many similarities exist in their physical makeup, their
diets, and their culture not to have been of the same family. This
face, a composition of Polynesian features, was created to exhibit
my point. The full lips, broad nose and epicanthic eyes were exaggerated
to emphasize the magnificence of the Polynesian race. Reflected in
this work is the face of a people who are generous and loving, sensual
and handsome. It shows a pride that is passionate and a strength of
mind and body that is formidable. As little detail as possible was
given to the features to emphasize simplicity. They are an uncomplicated,
trusting people with simple needs whose lives are bound in partnership
with the earth, sky and waters.
