Paradisus: Hawaiian Plant Watercolors of Geraldine King Tam

Painted between 1984 and 1998, this spectacular body of work includes watercolors of botanical subjects, depicted in various degrees of growth, characterized by a depiction of a branch of the plant in fruit and/or flower, offset with detailed renderings of fruits and flowers in cross-section. The completion of any given painting may take more than a year (sometimes several) when waiting for fruiting or flowering to occur. Geraldine King Tam, a personal friend of Kaye, was recently designated a Living Treasure by the Kauai Museum in Lihue, Hawaii.
