Clarita! Hello dear! Yes, it has been awhile! But at least your tikipatio is looking better than ever! A little bird told me that I may be in a show where your candles will be sold! Can't wait to see them in person! I'm dying to see what the boxes look like! Benz, Where is the village? Right behind your eyeballs and right behind your sternum! Mind and heart,that's where everyone's village is! I couldn't even begin to imagine the carved edifices in your private village! Thank you! Hewey, ...also cool! thanks for razzin Brad about the bubbles! pdrake, Sweet Jade Toggle! Teeny man! But what it lacks in size, it gains in personality! well,I'll start off with the changes I did to the Rev 6:13 piece... Removed those busy-ass clouds! They was crampin my style!!! A bit overly oppressive! i wanted a buildup of tension, not the freakin calvary charging over the hill,sooooooooo... That's all you get from this one for now!!!! BECAUSE..... I finished my Orongo Village piece yesterday (except for something special I've saved for the edges) and I'd like to share it with you! It's about 2x4' (this is not my week for measurements and dimensions....) and it's a piece of wood from a dresser drawer I cannibalized... I mixed gouache with the gesso, laid it down,let it dry, then painted it up lickety split! I used a metallic gold gouache mixed with a naples yellow for the Birdmen, to give them this special magical glow! May I present for your viewing pleasure.... "the Festival" A lot of the characters from earlier sketches were needing to meet and interact...See if you can recognize any of our old friends! here's some details!!!! And here some REEEEEEEAL close up details so you can check out the brushstrokes! Here's so you can see the village in the background...I did the outlines a shade darker so it would recess into the background and look far away! and here's one of the lovely tree branches... This one was pretty fun, and it seems I'm back in the saddle when it comes to brush paintin! kinda like riding a bike, you just need a couple of sessions and BAMMO! it returns like an old friend! And, always the one to provide a cliffhanger....Here's a STUDY of a piece that I'm about 1/3 finished with already.It too is gouache on canvas and it's called "Land of the Waterfalls"! It will have 5 Waterfalls and 10 Tikis and should be a lot of fun when it's done! And in case anyone dare accuse me of being a Lazybones.... here's Biff's customized mug I finished last week... http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=20932&forum=12&start=90&92 and my very first eBay excursion... http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=22780&forum=12&6 Whew! Can I go now? I'm tired! Talk atcha soon! Thank you! visit http://www.kenruzic.com and get visual Tourettes Syndrome!!! [ Edited by: little lost tiki 2007-02-02 21:20 ]

Benz,
Where is the village? Right behind your eyeballs and right behind your sternum! Mind and heart,that's where everyone's village is! I couldn't even begin to imagine the carved edifices in your private village! Thank you!

Hewey,
