One of Hawaii's premier painters, Koski reveals a delight and fascination with the subtleties of the human face and the challenging interplay of light and shadow. Working in the classical style of Flemish masters like Vermeer and Rembrandt, Koski creates light and life that seem to glow from within the painting.

Lyrical poetry accompanies each of these lovely paintings.
