Aloha Tiki Tribe!
Atomic Tiki Punk - Thanks! You know, the gallery is having a special discount for the "tiki tribe" while I'm there. I'm sure it would apply to any web purchases during my appearance (Sept 17th to the 19th) 10% off Giclees and 20% off originals. Just in case ya was wanting some art right now... anyways, thanks for the support! U da BEST!
TikiG - Wow, you made my day. Big Big Mahalo!
mp - Thanks! I try... really, thanks!
little lost tiki - Yes, today is the show! Well, tonight! I stayed up late and finished the painting:
"Jungle Witch"
(named after the Clouseaux song)
30" x 24"
acrylic on canvas
here's her delicate little feet...
I was going to give her "Alice Cooper" eye make up. Then thought, if I want to so his style eye make up, it'd be much better if I should actually do a low-brow exotica portrait of Alice Cooper - I would do a whole big-wet-eyed-Keen version of Alice. We'll see.
So, I took the Jungle witch more in the classic goth/Betty Boop style.
Here's the witch's hut.
Here's the old tiki
and here's the modern tiki!
Big Mahalo for the support while I got ready for this show!
Let's hope the "fine art" wine and cheese crowd of Maui is ready for some "Low Brow" tiki art!
Here's links to the shows information:
