Little Lost Tiki's Compendium: Page 21 a buncha stuff!

Aloha Friends!
I will post all of my Tiki work here in a semi-chronological order...
There are soooooo many of them that i will post new ones every couple of days until caught up!
Viewing this as a chance to clean up the art files at the homefront
i will be thanking you all by posting studies/sketches/never before seen artwork and concepts
to accompany certain pieces....As well as sharing pieces that got lost in the pile....
Feel free to ask any kind of question about the work here...
BUT.....if it's a HOW to question
Ask it in the Other Crafts thread
and i may produce a photo tutorial JUST FOR YOU! :)

All pieces here will be listed as such...
Title-medium (acrylic on canvas...etc)
No sizes unless i remember...
underneath all of that
if there is "private collection"
it means it was either bought
or i love it so much i kept it
or the wife snagged it...
I will also indicate if it was a commissioned work...
That being said
If there's anything you'd like to adopt
that doesn't say "private collection"
PM me and I'll track it down....

Thank you Hanford for giving us arteestos a place to hang and geek out!
and Welcome to little lost tiki's Gallery of Wonder and Merriment!
er Mystery!
:)

(of course, as i create new work, i will post it on it's own
and later categorize it into its category at a later date)

WOW Kinny, it's gonna be a LONG nite I can see that coming. You have SO Much stuff to post,C'mon, Get busy :o :lol:

Benzart is right Wow! We are spending a lot of time with Kingstiedye and we are enjoying all of your art hanging in his new tiki room. Wendy and Dan

Mysteriously wonderful, DOOD.

GROG envy you. You enjoy doing your art, and you're anxious to get in the studio and crank out more.

GROG only remember the pain and frustration GROG feel when creating art, and GROG put off doing it. And, when GROG finish a piece, it's less of a sense of accomplishment and more of a sense of relief that the damned thing is finished. The only thing that make it worthwhile to GROG is if the art bring joy to others. That why GROG wanted to be an animator--to create art that was entertaining.

GROG really glad for you that you enjoy creating your art and that it bring joy to you as well as others.

Keep up the good work, you lucky bastard.

LLT-

Awesome catalog. These pieces are just SO much better in person although the frantic energy still explodes off the 'puter screen, natch.

But - I must say - and please entertain this request - it would be groovy for me to see your piece "After Hours" posted here - if only for me to see 'private collection' attached to it :wink: I liken that to a badge of honor (for us mortals) my friend...

Exploding with such creative energy!
Love your different styles and vision!
So great to see them all here Maestro Ken!

I think I recognize the Green Village!
Oh! and don't forget this LLT original!

Patience....Patience Folks!
i have files and files and pages and pages (159 of them) to document and keep track of...
That paintied Shag mug is on the list,Chris,as are TikiG's drawing and everything else....
Please....i know you're all impatient to see "your" piece displayed,but wait,so i can post them in the order of the other Crafts post...Chronologically!

That Shag mug has to wait for a couple more mugs to be painted first...
so quit confusing me and posting my art on here....
pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez!
Try painting 3-400 pieces.art objects
then try to check them off while you repost them...
THEN have some soccertikiless joker attempt to help...
Not a good thing....
thanks for your cooperation!
:)

Kinny, there is no way one can just scroll down fast and get to the end of each page. Your work is so complicated and colorful and interesting, it is so alive and full of motion. I find myself stopping at each picture and looking all over it and each time I find something new I never noticed before. I particularly like all the color combination.

Benzart-in time,my friend...Where's that benzart gallery,hmmmm?
Wendy-give you and Dan and KTD a biiiig ol' hug! he DOES have a great collection od soooo many artists!
Andy-DOOD!
GROG-i hope someday that art can bring you such joy...i AM a lucky bastard!
TikiG-like i told Soccertiki....in time...in time!
159 pages is a loooot of ground to cover....

Jason-what are we doing hanging around these galleries? let's go group hug Bruno!

Chris-when i get to the painted Shag mug,i'll post the studies for it as well....
patience!

hiltiki-Well i hope this gallery will bring you hours and years of enjoyment.
i think all the details are mainly to
1)keep me from getting bored
2)makes the "world" on canvas more real!
Thanks to y'alls for the niceities!
MUTUAL INSPIRATION PACT IS IN FULL EFFECT!

You know WHAT!?!?!?
This is really time-consuming and EXHAUSTING!
So here's a what I'm gonna do....
Every few days i will grab a bunch of work from
the voluminous files of Tiki Art documented on my HD
and post them...
willy-nilly and all that!
Then i will check them off my list
until they are ALL posted!

Because going back to the Other Crafts post
noting all the pieces for that page
then hunting my art files for better copies
is a terrific waste of time
especially for a man with
painting on his mind....
So it's TIKI ART ROULETTE!
Who knows what the next post will bring?
next time may be sketches/hand-embellished mugs/painted monkeypods/Cannibals/shrunken heads/surfboards
whatever strikes my fancy
til they're all up to Inspire and Amaze you!

so for today.....
I will be sharing WOODBURNS!
About a year or so ago...

Great compilation of your work LLT. Diving into this thread is like
going into a candy store after a year-long diet. Well, it's not exactly
like that, I'm sure Grog could say it better, but it's all pretty cool.

CONGATIKI!
Mahalos man!
it IS kinda like a candy store
except this art rots your brain
not your teefus! :)

Here's two new ones
fresh outta the oven!

"the Ancestor Returns"
Cel vinyl and acrylic on masonite

This one is my second attempt for the Poly-Blend art show
at Harold Golen's gallery during Hukilau...
the theme is the PolyPop in it's many other guises
(Cuban-Nautical-the Dark Continent,etc....)
so i choo-choosed Africa!

Second piece just finished last night
"Jungle Drums"
Cel vinyl and acrylic on masonite

That's all! Bye!Bye!

I enjoyed your latest posts! What was it like "painting" with the wood burner? I played around with one but I didn't know what to "draw" so I put it away! Obviously not my preferred medium!

What a great gallery! you are so productive, i love your work and style, really really :)

beadtiki
Woodburning is great FUN! A dear friend sent me a Colwood Wood Burner with a few different tips
iou can adjust the heat level and get it so hot it melts the wood like butter! So basically,it burns the wood as fast as you normally sketch or draw!
Just don't do it for too long...smellin all that burning wood for over 2-3 hours can give you a headache! and it's pretty simple....
just sketch the design on wood lightly then go over those lines with the woodburner...TADA!
I'll do a step-by-step of some woodburning in my Other Crafts thread!

Clarita
Gracias mi Hermana de Arte! Did i say that right? :)
It's soooo fantastic to have so many art brothers and sisters to create and learn and share with!
YAYs!

Thank you both for leaving some thoughts and all you others who just like to visit! :)

Myself... I'm more a 2-D guy...as you can see from the objects that i attempted to sculpt...
"LLT #1 Mug"
private collection

"Babalu/LLT Mug collaboration"

it took a while,but i discovered that embellishing existing objects/mugs was my strength
whereas sculpting them myselves ends up looking like a Monkey with claw hands created it...
for example...Here's a Huge Platter that Babalu sculpted in it's entirety...
He left the middle open for a lil sumthin sumthin....
See what i mean? Collabs are the BEST!

I thought that my pig was Maori Povich!

sorry Murphdog.....
i lose track...
That was 200 pieces ago....

the other one had a clever name too.....
but i guess i fergot it.....
Thanks for posting the REAL MAORI POVICH!

Anyone know the name of the other one?
:)

Wow! Incredible output of creative 3D art there LLT!
Those surf board are (to quote the great Huell Howser)
“That’s Amayyyzing!”

AWE STRUCK! Wendy

NICE mugs Kinny! I hadn't seen some of these...choice brother.

I still have to put my hands on that one Oasis demo hanging platter you posted...there is still another level of stuff we need to add to it yet. It looks great as is though! I can't wait to see it in person. If you see squid, maybe you could pass it along? That might be one way of getting it down here?

Nice work man. The butterfly painted sculpture is way cool.
Cheers
KT
