Aloha Ohana!
Only 2 pieces done
and one photographed..
but first,let's chat a bit!
Can't wait for oasis where i am gonna GEEK out on Artchat with y'alls!
unless you're not going...
too bad so sad if that's the case...
Kiki! two weeks,girl!
Thanks for showin MOKO some kindness...
judging from the incredible creations you'll be offering in Artist Alley,i think many months of rent will be taken care of!
musty yarn! :lol:
Mike!-Mr. Funkeefresh!
Mahalos for refraining! :)
i'll explain the difference 'tween acrylic and gouache at Oasis...
after a jostling RAP BATTLE!
werd...
Robb-Thanks so much for the uber-kindness and words i don't deserve...
i think every artist strives to put themselves into a medium so strongly that it can recognized as that creator's work.As for the originality...we all got it,you just have to take a jump...who cares if it sells...the value is in the acquired knowledge made in creating something that pushes the genre,pushes the artist,and pushes the audience...pushypushy!
i think that's why i admire your work and what you're doing out in the boonies,Robb.You have a singular vision and a need to challenge yourself and get better and grow,and it shows!
bummed we can't geek out on art talk at oasis... :(
MeHeadhunter-
Glad this 3-D Oddball experimentation intrigues you...
i will release progress reports as they are formulated...
Hank! Zoy-Yoi-Yoink! indeed!
Hey if y'all haven't heered...Hank's FreakyBoutiki Gallery will be open and packed with tons of great art during Oasis!
Go cheggitout in between seminars!
jpmartdog-Mahalos friend!
can i hire you and Robb to write my obituary? :)
Seriously...
You guys need to quash the compliments
and gimme some art questions...
or challenges
or other artists to check out
or anecdotes...
or puns...i love puns....
Just posting the work must inspire a few folks
but add content and....
now you're cookin with gas!
This past few months,just playing with all these monkeypods
that friends have sent,
and being blessed by BooBen's generosity and art curiosity
and allowing us to collaborate..
to talking with hank
and artjammin with Squid and Toe
and Choppin with MadDog and Bowana and erik the red
and just so much inspiration
from so many individuals in this scene...
it's truly a Renaissance around here...
can you feel the energy?
as soon as more 3-D progress is declassified
you will be notified..
Swampfire!
Doug!
two weeks!
true,they don't need the 3-D glasses,but it somehow ENHANCES it more..
i bet it would work great with your work as well...
I'll bring the glasses! :)
Jason!
the back of Moko is sooooo HR Pufenstuf gone Sepik river...
thanks for not gettin in my grill about overlapping Maori and PNG themes....
singing on top of the mountain?
(more like yodeling in a ditch! :lol:)
Actually, if you ask the koala

mp-thanks!
looking forward to geeking out with all y'alls in the alley!
Duddy-thanks buddy!
what have you been up to?
getting any brush time in lately?
Figuring it's my last day of being 44 on earth
I thought i'd do one last woodburn on wood
it had been a while
and it's always good to encounter old friends..
plus i only had 2 for oasis!
"the Happy Drummer"
woodburn and ink tint on wood
basically, i just quick sketched him in pencil
really lightly on the wood
woodburnt it
then grabbed a sepia ink bottle
a brush
and commenced to shading...
after finishing him,i soooo wanted to do 5 more
but alas...all the other wood was gessoed
or already painted over... :(
here's a shot of the little tiki
hanging onto this Shield Mask headdress thingie..
Here's another detail
showing his face and hand action!
Welpers..i also did a.....MOO-AI
but my digi camera battery went DEAD
sorry Caroline! I'll post it as soon as i can!
i did manage to take some progress pics
of the Infamous Pappy Haggler Pegboard of Perfection!
eat your heart out,Dawn! :lol:
(have you guys
seen Dawn's booth for the Artist Alley?
in-frickin-sane!a literal piece of art)
But not at Pappy Hagglers Bargin BArn
where we don't get all fancy with our booth
that ways we keeps prices low for y'alls! :)
but i digress...
Here's about 80% of the PAINTINGS i'll be a'bringin
(Also have 4 Clear-view folders fulla drawings for you to ESpy!
You can barely see the Special Pappy Haggler pricetags on each item!
Something for Everyone!
Anyways, i got a tomorrow full of relaxing to get to..
