A L O H A tiki Tribe!

LLT~ I leave for the main land tonight. Very excited and very nervous! I have not been off the rock since last July. I know I'm going to go into culture shock on the LA freeways ... like I did last time! We have no free way on the island. Cars go about 35 mph all the way around the freaking island. Last time I was in LA I drove from your place in Orange to my mom's in West lake village... I was going 80 mph in the slow lane and cars were ZOOMING past me... scared the aloha outa' me! Maybe one or two hours more painting today...I won't be able to paint for like 7 days! You know how we artists get - all twitchy and itchy with out being able to make art! Soooo sketch book time! Hope 2 see u dere in La La Land!

Iokona Ki'i~ Thank you! It was a real special surprise to get in the show. I went on line and saw some of the other WAY cool work in the show...some very very cool stuff!

So far my fav is mp's painting: Groms. I Only wish Frankenstein was finished in time. Iokona Ki'i, It'd be GREAT to see you there. Come up and say hi! I'm gonna wear a really bright red and yellow fire pattern aloha shirt witha devil face on the back so tiki tribe folks can find me. Now, of course, I apologize in advance if I come off weird... I admit I am a TOTAL social slug: An introvert-maximus. I expect I will have a deer-in-the-head-lights look to my glazed slack face from being in a big crowd of people - there are like a hundred artists in dis show! Perhaps a few trips next door over to the Tiki Ti for a few Mai Tais or Zombies will help!

Speaking of Frankenstein:

Here he is so far...

Here's the palm tree. Yeah I went for more real looking trees this time.

Here's the wave and some more palms...
I'm really getting into these waves, especially after I did "Mister Mai Tai"

Well....
I will be away from my studio till I get back from LA. That's next week. So you may not see anything here till like the 12th or so.

Big ALOHA
