Zero, pardon my ignorance - but are these done digitally or in paint? Whatever it is, I love your style :)

Thanks Mike!

I start with a sketch on paper. Sometimes detailed, sometimes not. I believe the sketch for this latest is a few pages back in this thread. Then I work almost exclusively digital. I also on occasion use photographs I take to layer in textures. For example, on this latest illustration part of the texture you see in the foreground Tiki is one of the trees outside my house. In some of my pieces you can see my palms and papaya trees as textures in the backgrounds. I am itching to do some acrylic originals. I haven't painted on canvas in MANY years and it's calling to me!
