This hand carved pair of turtles is a sacred reminder of the Islander's permanent relationship with the ocean. The turtle, Honu in Hawaiian, is a goddess who protects anyone in the ocean, especially children and surfers.

This egg is hand painted by a young Balinese artist who just walks up and down a beach in Sanur, pausing to paint these delicate beauties as he talks to his friends, or the awed tourists and, sometimes to his quiet muse.
