A Big MAHALO to everyone who came out to support and participated in the Tonga Hut Art Show! What a BLAST! If you missed it I should hope you are kicking yourself as we speak. Little Lost Tiki shared his altered reality with all of us in an impressive and vibrant display. Like a peacock on acid. Tiki Diablo and his lovely lady Steph always impress with their lava island mug display diorama, and the new hand painted work is gorgeous! The elusive Johnny Velour made a rare appearance with even rarer handmade, hand-fired one of a kind lava bowls and mugs! He has a line of raku glazed poison bottles on the way, so look out! The always suave Tacky Tiki (Suburban Pegan) had a glowing display of canvass prints and weeping tiki candles. That's one talented dude. Seco from the Martini Kings-looking fabulous is a screaming orange Hawaiian shirt and snug white bell bottoms-shared some of his cool art with us as well as vending CD's and Camp Burlesque videos. Another multi-talented cat! TikiYaki Orchestra mastermind Jim shared his amazing new CD with us, and we kicked off the show listening to the smooth and sexy sounds. I can't wait to hear it LIVE!!! DJ Lee put on an amazing set, and had the whole place dancing from 9 to 1 AM!!! A big thanks to Grog for helping me put another art show together, and for being the take out order guy for all the starving artists. :) A big Mahalo to the Tonga Hut for allowing us to take over the bar for another night! :) Here's a picture of my newest paintings that I finished just in time for the show (we are talking about an HOUR before I had to go set up!) Thanks everyone!!! Share your pictures if you took any-I know there were more shutter bugs than just Boris. . .! |
