YAY!
Thanks for the visit and the Hugs,Clarita!
mmmmmmmm! :)

as i've mentioned...
December is
GET ALL THOSE PROJECTS/COMMISSIONS DONE YOU LAZY BUM month
so.......
It's gonna be a minimal verbage day today kids!

Babalu/Ruzic Giant Platter Collaboration....

Closeup of my contribution....

also did some embellishment on the eyes/tongues/and the inner rim
just to spice it up....

Second thing....
Maori Husband and Wife for WooHoo and Soccertiki!

Also finished up a Gecko/Paipo Collaboration
from many months back...
Here's my original study for it..
trying to figure out how to approach and enhance an already beautiful piece...
I wanted it to retain a lot of symbolism from Rapa Nui
as well as some hints of the birdman cult..

and here it is
in all the hand-held camera's glory..

and some close-ups...

and that's about it....Tiki-wise
i did work on this "Sleepwalker" piece
trying to get a good dynamic force/flow with a figure in this style...

and mp sent me a painting from a long ago trade...
Here it is in the studio..

the Lonely Isle enjoyed questioning these PNG cobras for awhile..

and the lil guy underneath complained of a tummy ache
(he always does that)

and,besides a weird staredown with a Maori Chief
i think they're fitting in just fine!

Plus he has backup from another empee skullmug painting a few feet away...

Thanks mp......Beautiful!

Well, that's it for now....
i still have more stuff
but can't share it yet.....
Enjoy!
