Hope to see all the TC Ohana out at Kona tonight! I want to thank all the artists again for getting the show back on track on such short notice! Thanks for all the hard work guys! There were other artists that had to pull out because of the wacky schedule. I want to thank them for wanting to participate, the show would have been that much better with them included. So big thanks to: Atomikitty Babalu OceaOtica Bablu was hard at work on his piece at the February chop, and it looked fantastic! And thanks to BigTikiDude Jeff for his musical contribution tonight! And thank you to Chuck Purrington for being open to the idea of an art show and allowing us to come in for a big kick off, plus a month-long run! Hopefully, if this show is successful, Kona, or rather Don the Beachcomber will consider more art shows in the future, and we can get all this great work out and seen by an appreciative tiki audience! Oh yeah, here's one last piece I finished this week: It's called Swordfish By Night 11" x 14" colored pencil on paper It's based on the photo that I tool that was used for the flier for the show. Mahalo! Yer pal, Eric October This is beautiful, I love this... Everything is so Awesome! Have a great show everyone. See ya there.
