—Addison Kanoelani is a luxury abstract artist whose work lives at the intersection of nature, emotion, and the cosmos. Raised with deep Hawaiian roots and shaped by a lifelong connection to the natural world, Addison creates immersive pieces that serve as visual sanctuaries—safe, luminous spaces where softness is not just allowed, but honored.

For Addison, art is not simply an act of creation, but a deeply personal ritual of healing and transformation. After navigating trauma and stepping away from a strict religious upbringing, she found solace in the wilderness—among blooms, stars, and sea foam. Nature became her cathedral, and now, through her paintings, she shares that same sense of reverence and calm with others.

Each piece is built from visions—strong, persistent images that take root in her mind and won’t let go until they’re brought to life. Beginning with a textured acrylic base, Addison layers plaster, sand, and mica to create grounding foundations. She then carefully incorporates real preserved tropical flowers—often grown herself—as well as crystals, pearls, and oceanic elements like sea shells or starfish, sealing them into the work with resin. Some paintings take months from conception to completion, reflecting not only the time-intensive process but the emotional depth behind each one.

Addison’s art carries an intention: to reconnect people to the parts of themselves they’ve hidden in order to survive. She believes that nature, in its softness and resilience, can help heal those hidden pieces. Her work invites viewers to pause, breathe, and remember the feeling of being fully safe and fully seen.

From highly textured pieces that shimmer with quartz and flora, to ethereal works inspired by the stars, every painting is an invitation—to return to nature, to self, and to peace.
