Aloha Duddy and Dawn!
Duddy-keep up that carving and you're gonna get more "Wows" than you can handle! Do you got a few years I could borrow?I'll pay you in paintings!hahaha Love seeing what your tikified mind comes up withIt's been a few weeks and I really need to paint! I'll be gallery sitting today at the Caged Chameleon so I might bring a canvas.it's maddening wanting to paint but not having the time! Plus seeing all of Tiki Central's artists and great art makes me feel like I need to do more!Thanks for the encouragement!Keep carving!
Hello Dawn!
Well, now that you've nailed acrylic.why not try watercolors?Start with gouache tho! It's opaque and dries fast and you can go over it-and the blending.....divine! It don't stink like oils either!My wife has a VW camper,but I could never convince her to trick it out likr yours! Looooove the stone floor! Mahaloz!
Here's an ink/colored pencil on watercolor paper. This piece inspired the mugs I'm working on with Smogbreather.....

Aloha!
