Smaller art piece painted by Naoki Hayashi.  He began making gyotaku prints at age 11 and since then he has refined and mastered his unique gyotaku process. Each of Naoki's gyotaku pieces is created using non-toxic acrylic paints and Japanese shoji paper. As an avid diver and fisher, Naoki views each gyotaku as a window into the underwater world he sees when diving in Hawaii's beautiful ocean waters. His art features fish in true-life color and in compositions that reflect how they are found in nature.
