“Coastal Palette” is Peter Lik at His “Painterly” Best

Peter has just released his newest gallery print. And it’s something special.

Named “Coastal Palette,” it was shot along a ruggedly beautiful piece of coastline on the Big Island of Hawai’i during filming for his upcoming series on The Weather Channel.

“It took a lot of searching to get just the right location for ‘Coastal Palette’,” said Peter. “It’s pretty unique. And it really has that painterly feel to it that I love to capture, which is why I gave it the name I did.”

Anyone wishing to inquire about “Coastal Palette” but unable to get to one of Peter’s galleries should contact their art consultant or contact us at collectart@peterlik.com.

“Photographing Hawai’i is always a real adventure,” added Peter. “I’ve experienced everything from volcanoes to extreme altitude. Plenty of great scenes to capture. But this one said so much about the Big Island in one frame.”

  3. Wow!!! I am going to need a better paying job because this is the most amazing picture ever. I was in love with the tree of hope, now I need both pictures and a bigger house. Each picture captures a different feeling.

  4. I purchased “Coastal Palette” two weeks ago because it struck a chord with me just standing in front of it. Then I saw “Mauna Lani”. The two images seemed to compliment each other so I blew the budget and purchased it as well. Looking forward to having both of these in my collection.

  6. Peter Lik’s photographs are impossibly perfect. Several of them have literally taken my breath away on first glance. Others I have gazed at for the longest moment, unable to absorb all the wealth of colours, lighting, shadows, scenic details. He is incredibly gifted and truly blessed to be able to visit so many beautiful, magical places on our Planet. Living within the urban landscape of London, I’m able to escape to outrageously bewitching natural landscapes through his work.

  7. I purchased Coastal Palette as well after seeing this post on-line. All of my friends have been in awe of this piece since it really does look like a painting. Truly remarkable. The colors in the sky are fantastic as well. Hard to believe it’s a photograph! Can’t wait to buy my next piece.

  8. It’s hard to believe it’s a photograph because it’s been so over processed. It’s a violation to the eyes. OMG, the horizon isn’t even level. Do you really think this is a good image?
