How did I come up with the idea for painting this picture? That was easy. Inspiration came from combining my love for working with watercolors, making people smile, the Hawaiian Islands and the many years I spent diving with the marine life in the waters off the island of Moloka'i, plus the fact that this species of Triggerfish (Rhinecanthus rectangulus) is the official State of Hawai'i fish.
Because I think you will enjoy sharing this picture as much as I do, go to my Humu-Humu Ho-Ho Hawaiian Christmas Triggerfish Gallery to view and download the various pictures and text art messages in it to make your own personal greeting cards and other holiday celebration items.
