Rainbow Lokahi

Lokahi is Hawaiian for unity, agreement, accord, unison, and harmony. My original design combines the word in exuberant letters with hibiscus flowers and rainbow Pride colors into an optimistic and ambitious statement for GLBT people: Rainbow Unity! Rainbow Lokahi!

A GreatGear compadre was so eager for me to do a Pride design of "lokahi" that I added the idea to my pile of such things. (Hiya, Cassie.) I didn't know what to do with it—sometimes I need a break from the red orange yellow green blue purple thang—but I pondered while working on other designs.

Then two days ago this design popped into my head, complete in almost every detail. I love when that happens. My muse must be close by.
