Zero - this is my first comment on your thread.

Having lurked for a few months I just couldn't stay silent anymore, I just love the latest artwork posted. There's something sinister about the monkey's eye peeping thru those glasses, but in a good drug-dealer way, dig? For me you captured the spirit of a prankster, like he's taking a dump off of the tiki, over the fence onto the lawn of the background A-frame tiki bar...I know I'm warped but I tend to do that with art imagery - you know, what was he doing just before and just after the scene as shown?

Great stuff here. If you're making the Hukilau scene this year I hope to meet up with you and talk art over a tropi-cocktail. Thanks for posting. G

Hey TikiG,

Thanks for the comments and compliment. You may have read in a previous post that altho' for the most part the expression I achieved on the chimp was accidental, I feel there is definitely something sly about him. And I guess what I mainly feel he is saying is "You have no idea what's going on behind me" or something to that effect.

As for the Hukilau, I was hoping to attend as a vendor but was denied as there were already too many artists booked. I really hope I can book for next year.

I may show up at some point, primarily to visit the bazaar and maybe catch the Neanderthals! Hopefully I can meet a few TCers!
