Rodney Moki Basconcillo aka Moki o Kaua‘i, of Anahola, died at Wilcox Memorial Hospital on Nov. 28, 2007, at the age of 59.

Aloha,
I just saw your request for Moki’s paintings. If you would like to purchase his paintings, you can contact me through [email protected] or when you visit Kauai, his paintings are at Earth and Sea Gallery, downtown Kapaa.

Moki o Kauai

I saw his prints and almost bought one myself- beautiful work. I don’t remember the name of the shop, but it was in a shopping center in Kapa’a, across from the ABC store, with a sushi place, a womens’ clothing store, and a shop that sold paintings. This little shop had many prints, jewelry, clothing, figurines, etc. A real nice woman worked there both times I went in. I’ve thought about calling to try to buy a print, but can’t think of the name of the store. Anybody know that one?
