Here it is! Installed late September in the Kaiser Permanente Emergency Waiting Room in Santa Rosa, in the new building across from the parking garage on Bicentennial. It was a VERY busy summer creating this sculpture quickly, and designed to be indestructible by hoards of children. There is a very heavy durable steel frame creating every curve and surface of this piece, underneath the resin. Its super-durable, yet the exterior surface is friendlier than steel - resin is softer, and with the bright colors is inviting for children to play with it. It's really a joy to have created a piece with children in mind.
Kauila is named after the Hawaiian Sea Turtle Goddess, who is the protector of children.
