High Heedjin

' Man, a love big heed's me!' So here's another one. Again, it's rendered in oils with a large pallet knife. Canvas is 80cm by 60cm.
Rano Raraku on Easter Island is a volcanic crater and moai grave yard. It is a quarry site where moai can be seen in various states of completion. Some are half carved, many are broken, and many seem to have been abandoned in mid-transport. Most remarkably, at the base of the quarry, moai stand half buried in the slope up to their chins and noses from years of erosion.
