Buds of Paradise: Cement Slippahs x Raymund Maravilla Cannabis Strain Art

At Noa Botanicals, we believe that cannabis is more than just plant medicine—it’s a source of inspiration, a connector of communities, and a reflection of Hawaii’s rich cultural heritage. That’s why we’re launching the Buds of Paradise Cannabis Strain Art Series, an innovative collaboration that brings together local artists and premium cannabis strains to create one-of-a-kind artwork that captures the essence of our most beloved strains.
Heavy Hittah Vibes Meet Visual Art: Cement Slippahs x Raymund Maravilla
The Buds of Paradise series at Noa Botanicals continues to celebrate the intersection of cannabis, culture, and creativity — and this time, it’s with a strain that hits heavy and an artist who sees beauty in the everyday.
Introducing Cement Slippahs, a deeply grounding indica cannabis strain, paired with original artwork by local visual composer Raymund Maravilla (@planarsurface). Inspired by structure, subtlety, and surrealism, Raymund’s piece reimagines the weight of this indica classic through bold typography and everyday symbolism.
Cement Slippahs: Get Stuck in the Best Way
True to its name, Cement Slippahs is a potent indica strain known for its full-body effects and immovable couch-lock feel. It’s the perfect companion for nighttime use, deep rest, or much-needed physical relief.
Aroma: Fresh earth, burnt rubbah, sharp citrus, and hints of diesel
Flavor: Creamy mint, sour fruit funk, toasted mac nuts, sweet chem
Experience: Heavy, calming, body-melting — deeply sedating and unbothered
Best For: Stress relief, sleep, chronic pain, PTSD, and muscle spasms
This strain delivers a signature Hawai‘i-style wind down with an extra strong grip, perfect for patients seeking stillness, deep physical release, or a mental reset.
Terpene Profile
The strength of Cement Slippahs lies in its terpene-rich makeup:
Myrcene – deeply relaxing and sedating
Limonene – supports mood and anxiety relief
Caryophyllene – pain-fighting and anti-inflammatory
Linalool – calming and soothing
Humulene – earthy and potentially anti-inflammatory
Together, these terpenes help unlock the entourage effect, providing a holistic experience for both body and mind.
About the Artist: Raymund Maravilla (@planarsurface)
ocal artist Raymund Maravilla has a gift for turning the unnoticed into the unforgettable. He draws from organic forms and everyday objects, building visual compositions that feel part collage, part dream. For Cement Slippahs, he transforms the familiar into something grounded and poetic — a pair of concrete blocks laced together by rope, a nod to Hawai‘i’s cultural humor and metaphors of heaviness.
Raymund’s style is abstract yet intentional, remixing shape and texture like a DJ sampling beats. He often pulls from natural patterns, textures, and island life, using them as building blocks for pieces that soothe the eyes and stir the soul. Through Buds of Paradise, Raymund reminds us that art, like cannabis, is a tool for perspective, connection, and reflection.
