Buds of Paradise: Truffaloha #2 X Solario Cannabis Strain Art
At Noa Botanicals, cannabis is more than flower—its storytelling, culture, and creativity rooted in Hawaiʻi. Through our Buds of Paradise Cannabis Strain Art Series, we collaborate with local artists to transform strains into visual experiences inspired by the flavors, feelings, and spirit of the islands. Our latest release, Truffaloha #2 Cannabis Strain, comes to life through the nostalgic tropical lens of Waikīkī-based illustrator Solario.
With warm vintage tones, lush island landscapes, and retro Hawaiʻi-inspired design, Solario’s artwork perfectly captures the smooth, dreamy experience of this indica-dominant cultivar.
Buds of Paradise: Featuring Solario
Based in sunny Waikīkī, Solario is an independent illustrator inspired by Hawaiʻi’s vibrant spirit and the timeless charm of 20th century design. His work celebrates the cultural, natural, historical, and architectural beauty of the islands through nostalgic imagery and rich storytelling.
Drawing influence from vintage travel posters and classic Hawaiʻi aesthetics, Solario creates artwork that feels both familiar and transportive—bringing viewers into a softer, slower version of paradise.
For the Buds of Paradise collaboration, Solario crafted a retro island dreamscape for Truffaloha #2, blending warm tropical colors, lush botanicals, and scenic coastal imagery that mirrors the strain’s relaxing and euphoric effects.
