This is another of the Pictorial mosaic patterns I have been playing with. 

I saw a photo on the news showing Maui in the distance from the Lahaina side on the island, I thought I could make that shape so I decided to try and then auction off the knife with 50% going to Maui Strong, a 501C that is doing a lot of great work in Maui to help recover from the wild fires.  Auction will be on my instagram page starting tomorrow (9/23/2023)
