Raised in Kumamoto, Japan, Hajime Okuda was a born artist, seizing every opportunity to sketch and paint his surroundings. At age 16, he moved to Maui, pursuing his dream to become a professional artist in America. Initially, he supported himself as an illustrator for the Hawaii Times and Hawaii Hochi. A lucrative commission of floral block-print patterns for the tourist industry allowed him to focus his full attention on painting in 1958. He devoted himself to embracing novel techniques while mastering classical conventions, capturing precious memories of mid-century Hawaii with the warmth and luminosity of the great French Impressionists. Drawing upon Monet’s brushwork, Renoir’s colors, and Van Gogh’s expressivity, Okuda’s works stand toe-to-toe with the great palette-knife painters of the 20th century. Treasured among locals and mainlanders alike, the breathtaking palette-knife oils by this eminent Hawaiian landscape artist are not often available for purchase.
