I am really stoked to see you guys haven't forgot about you ol buddy Chongo even after I have been some what scarce over the last few years. I have not forgot about any of you and do miss being more involved with the artist here on T.C. and the whole tiki scene in general. The truth is I have been really busy since my move over to Kauai and my life over here has gone through many changes which has also rearranged my priorities and to be honest I just got lazy. I am still doing my best to stay on a creative tip but really needed to focus more on making a living and settling into my new home. I will always have the tiki vibe and I love life in Hawaii, however the experience has changed the way I now view the island lifestyle. It's a bit hard to explain but living in Hawaii and coming for a few weeks of vacation are two entirely different experiences. Please don't get me wrong I don't regret my move and do not plan on moving back but their has been plenty of bumpy roads and a lot of missing my friends and family. Thanks again for the comments it really does mean a lot to me. LLT-Thanks for the Tombo tip. Those brush pens have been my weapon of choice lately as they are easy to throw into a back pack along with the sketch pad. I will try out the wet brush technique on my next sit down. Sam- So good to hear from you braddah! I hope everything in your world is rock solid and you are keeping your creative flame burning bright. Polynesiac- Glad to hear you liked the little buggah Mahalo for looks. Hows the beachcombing been out there? Lots of neat stuff washing up ont he shore over here but still have not found any glass floats, just lots of plastic floats, driftwood and fishing nets. Suburbanpagan- A visit by the death bird is never a pleasant experience. I think my loin cloth would need a changing too if I got the call, but I am a big wuss and lose it over the less threatening centipedes and spiders. Glad you are still enjoying the podcasts. Unfortunately, the adventures will probably never return in a podcast format but I have been playing with a new idea to continue the storyline but not sure how it will play out.
