Striking colors and two-dimensional surfaces characterize Pegge Hopper’s well-known vision of the quintessential Hawaiian woman; she is always sensuous, stylized, and strong. This colossal serigraph captures the tranquility of early morning with a woman dressed in soft pink and resting on her pune‘e. The graphic simplicity of the bold green curtain against the sunlit background frames her reclining pose, draped across the picture plane. Her half-open eyes indicate that we may have roused her from a dream. The delicate vanda orchid mirrors her exotic beauty and complements the elegant color palette in this masterwork. Inspired by the two-dimensional forms of modern art and the grandeur of Madge Tennent’s Hawaiian women, Pegge Hopper has created collectible graphic art that imbues any home with the calm atmosphere of Hawai‘i.
