Hey all, thanks for the cool feedback.

I know it's been a while. Been trying out some new ways of working, not all a success.

But have just finished these 3 pieces for the Denver Modernism show, appearing in the tiki lounge.

Did manage to save a few wip photos along the way.

Start off with penciling in the outline and get the detail down.

Then start to get the background roughed in and get some sense of the colours, this is all done very loose.

Really laid the paint on thick on places...

Then I got done to adding some shape and form to the subjects.

Here's the final lineup and some more details.

marq_hook - 8x10" ink/acrylic on canvas
"Painting of a rare marquesan hook, found in a german print history book"

ivi_poo - 12x12" ink/acrylic on canvas
"A tikiracer look at the amazing marquesan bone carvings"

uu - 24x24" ink/acrylic on canvas
"Tikiracer warclub with hints of racing goggles, steering wheels and spanners"
