Aloha tiki Tribe~
Tubunga ~ Thanks so much. Means a lot coming from one of my favorite artist/friends! This one is going through big changes. I think I'm getting over my fear of painting out things till they look right. Of course maybe this is not good, as I could just keep repainting the whole thing for ever! But, I think my process is a very organic one - things grow on their own, taking new directions, and I'm just following it with a paint brush mopping up.
greentikipat - Thank you, I was very surprised and flattered by being on the cover. For about an hour after I first saw it, I just sat there gawking at it like kid with a new toy. It's the first time I've ever made the cover of something. Next will be the fall / winter issue of Tiki Magazine.

Here's the paint slapping I managed last night. It seems so dark now. I know it's a twilight scene, but I think I gotta lighten it up considerably.
