THE PAINTING WAS INSPIRED BY PELE THE HAWAIIAN GODDESS, ANCIENT STORIES TELL OF HER THE GODDESS OF FIRE, LIGHTNING, DANCE, WIND, VOLCANOES AND VIOLENCE. HER POETIC NAME IS KA WAHINE `AI HONUA OR THE WOMAN WHO DEVOURS THE LAND. SHE IS BOTH A CREATOR AND DESTROYER. SOME PEOPLE SAY THEY SEEN HER DANCING IN THE LAVA SPOUTING FROM THE CONES. I THOUGHT A PAINTING AS SUCH WOULD BE A GREAT TRIBUTE TO HER.
