Kahuku Grill Art Competition

It all started with the Kahuku Grill art competition. Owners and friends of Kahuku Grill, the Hannemann family, hosted an art competition for BYU Hawaii art students. The task at hand was to enliven the interior space at the North Shore restaurant Kahuku Grill. Entries were made and ultimately Trijsten Leach's "transition through history" sketch was to be painted by artists Ryan Jung and Trijsten Leach. The following is their story.

The Massive Wall- first phase

Ryan and I had never really painted a mural. In fact we both were students learning to paint. We didn't know how big three walls totaling 352.5 square feet was.  7.5 feet tall and 46 feet long. We had lots of help along the way and the Hannemann's were more than happy to take care of our needs and feed us some of the best food in all of Hawaii.


As you can see we drew a huge grid on the wall that helped us to transfer the drawing proportionately
