Hello Kids!
Well....4 more days til Seattle!
the EXCITEMENT mounts....

Did a few pieces this last week
but only photographed one...
Will shoot the other ones before my trip!

Iokona Ki'i...JAson!
How cool that work is now a permanent fixture at the Tonga Hut!
Well deserved and Wildly Appropriate!
Thanks for the blanket AWESOME! :)
Right back atcha!

Squid piece done and sent off to the nice man down the street...
here's the final shot of it!

Would loooove to do the one-color skeleton as a tee
we'll see....

Kiki!
Thanks fer the visit,Madame!
:)
How was the Shane on Friday Night?
lovin those evolutionary jumps in style..
Half-purposeful half "lightnin in a bottle"
That piece called for more monochramiticism (izzat a werd?)
because a dark dank jungle path requires it!
No fumes on the Cel Animation Vinyl! Soap and Water Clean-up too!
I hope Clysdalle takes a likin to that
as enamel is waaaay too stinky! and turpentine clean-up?
shudder!

"the Ruzic"...
sigh....
:)

Got a visit from the indomitable TikiG on Saturday...
he came to see the studio,rap about some art geek stuff
and to adopt "After hours" for his hut!

Being a hermit
it's so nice to receive news of the outside world from fellow artists!
Thanks Greg! :)

Well, here's a new painting from the week...
working title: "the Fishing Trip"
(acrylic and cel animation vinyl on masonite)
but may change it...
the narrative appears to crave development...
elaboration...
something more....

i wandered from the usual pallette a bit.... for mood...for fun..

Here's some details...
the boat and the prow and some of the accompanying fishies....

You can observe here
the fish face and the sail..

the whole fish body
with some hatching to give it texture...

the volcano and the background landscape...

the right-hand background island
and a suggestion of a village...

I have two more drawings,at least,to document for you
and will when time allows!
Until we next meet...
Ciao Ohana!
