Aloha tiki Tribe!
Sorry about the gap in my blog/tread. Sometimes life happens and no art gets done.
leleliz - Thanks! I'm getting back, and getting some work on Frankenstein done, hope you dig it. You nailed it. Kitsch - is it art? Is it an American Art form like "Comic Books" or "Professional Wrestling"? Guess I'm exploring the idea of "if you paint kitsch carefully and well enough, (or as best as I can) what happens?" When does kitsch turn into art? Or does it? Or is it already? Or is that a stupid question?
Atomic Tiki Punk - I... well, wow. Thank you so much for such generous words. To hear someone (i have not slipped a few bucks) say something so complementary about my work is very nice. Really. Big big Mahalo!
zerostreet - Thanks! I LOVE to hear I can help inspire other artists! That's what TC is all about! I'm so inspired by the other tiki artists here, it's the reason I started doing tiki art. Like seeing Ken's work jazzed me into making work I never had the guts to try. Big aloha buddy!
Atomic Tiki Punk - Sorry brother, I was out dealing with life and all it's roller coaster-ness. Now back to making some art!
Here's the first step ... note he has a surf board
Here's the next rough... I changed what Frankenstein had into a uke. I thought it was more funny... and kitschy.
Big aloha!
