Lot description

Pierre Bouret (B 1950) American, Oil on Canvas. Signed bottom left. Titled "'Hihimanu' Hanalei, Kauai" and signed on back, along with inscription "07307." Depicts the titled summit on the Hawaiian island. Depth: 1 1/4 in. Overall size: 15 1/2 X 13 1/2 in. Sight size: 9 1/2 X 7 1/2 in. #1558 . Pierre Bouret was born in 1950 and moved to Kauai, Hawaii in 1970 to pursue his passion for surfing. Once on the island he was captivated by the beauty and magnificence of the surrounding landscape. Having no formal training, Pierre learned art techniques and the plein air (“outdoor”) painting style by approaching local artists, chiefly Saim Caglayan, President and founding member of Laguna Plein Air Painters Association. Hawaii's mountains, waterfalls cascading into the ever changing sea, and moments of magical light and shadow have provided an endless source of material for his work, as evident in this piece.
