LIHU‘E — Lilian de Mello, a Kapa‘a photographer, calls a particular work “Yellow Rocks, White Clouds.”
A young visitor mesmerized by the work during de Mello’s every-Sunday art show at the St. Regis Princeville Resort admired the work for several minutes, then disappeared, de Mello said in an e-mail.
“I had this photo against the wall and a kid (6 or 7 years old) kept looking at it. Then he left puzzled, and a few minutes later he came back, called me, showed me the yellow rocks and asked me very seriously, ‘Is this cheese?’”
That is “one to remember,” she said.
“I think that he was disappointed when I told him that they were big rocks,” she said.
“Have a great day, and dream with giant cheese,” she said.
