We just got back from whittier and I have to say I am even more impressed with Leroys skills as an artist then ever. We all know his tikis and polynesian creations are amazing, but I had no idea that he sculpts and paints in many different styles and formats. My wife and I were awe struck at the paintings, pen and inks and the really cool cochina dolls and wooden birds! In addition to his awesome works, were the works of his extended family too! both children and grandchildren. Each one's work amazing as the next. Each very much an artist in their own right. One VERY talented family.

It was good to see a decent TC presence (even with tiki invasion going on), to get a chance to chat with Leroy and Bob (such great and friendly people!) and listen to polynesian drumming and dancing. Good times!

I'm bummed I won't be able to make it on the 17th, but for those of you going, you're going to have a blast!

Thanks Leroy and family, the OA crew, and TC ohana for a fun evening! I hope your art show goes very well!
