Paul J. Saviskas has been designing and creating sculptured and custom art on the Big Island of Hawai'i for the past 30 years. He has mastered the art of transforming flat sheets of stainless steel into magnificent and decorative tropical floral designs on gates, entranceways, and railings found on many homes on Oahu, Maui, and the Big Island.

Three dimensional marine life art forms, such as the state fish, "Humuhumunukunukuapua'a",  and the Hawaiian sea turtle, "Honu", are widely photographed pieces found in Hanauma Bay and Honolulu Chinatown.  A large sculpture of the Hawaiian dragonfly, "Pinao", hovers above a pond at Kapiolani Park in Waikiki.

Several other pieces have found a home at the Honolulu Zoo.  A pair of whooping cranes, (part of the endangered species and wildlife series) entitled, "1001 Feathered Good Luck Cranes" nestle in the flamingo habitat, while a stately "Masai Warrior", greets visitors at the entrance to the African savanna habitat.

Pictured on the left, is the artist at the dedication of his recently completed stainless steel sculpture, entitled "Na Honu Ekolu" (The Turtles Three).   This piece depicts the graceful movements of the endangered Hawaiian sea turtles swimming in their native reef habitat.  The intricate details of each turtle were captured after hours of swimming alongside them at Punalu'u black sand beach on the Big Island.

A History of Great Art Craftsmanship
Paul was born and raised in New England.  His versatile artistic style extends in scope to designing and creating sculptures reflecting diverse cultures, surroundings and lifestyles, and endangered species.  Paul's meticulous and skillful attention to detail reflect his background in prototype engineering and the experience handed down from three generations of master metal workers with the greatest influence credited to his father, the late Julius Saviskas.
