Aloha Tiki Tribe!
p0~ Hey I think Ken has a Tiki Coloring Book, or at least did. Don't know if he has any left.
Robb~ Farting Unicorn? Now you're talking my language!
Ivan~ Wow, that's quite a challenge for an artist. Your work doesn't show any problems in relation to that. I applaud you!
So, got some work on the "Tiki Mag" page 7 painting.

The windows in my art making space let in a glorious morning light. Too bad I usually work at night.

A detail.

Redrew the third menehune. I originally had four, then decided I didn't have enough room for all of them and dropped it to three. However, I then changed the third one so it was facing more toward the viewer, so it's face could be seen.

Had to rework the figure three times on the canvas. I didn't make it large enough, then it was not working with the composition, so finally I had to repose it on the fly: bringing it's right arm up - this tied it back into the composition. Before, it was leading the viewer's eye off the canvas.
Happy Labor Day~
