Hawaiian Moo Wahine Canvas Wall Art — Hawaii Mythology Decor 2
A woman with the long tail of a mo'o reclines beside a still pool on this canvas — half-human, half-dragon, framed by moss and dappled tropical light. The mood is more enchanted forest than fearsome legend.
The mo'o are some of the oldest beings in Hawaiian story — older than many of the named gods. They guard fresh water, and old fishermen still pay quiet respects at certain pools and ponds. A Mo'o Wahine in human form is said to comb her long black hair beside the water, watching for those who approach with disrespect.
Hang it in a bathroom, a sunroom, or near an indoor plant arrangement — anywhere water and green already share the space. It also makes a striking gift for collectors of mermaid and water-spirit folklore who want a Hawaiian counterpart.
Canvas wall art print. Available in many sizes from 6×6 to large gallery formats.
