Thanks my tiki family for the positive vibes and comments -

I get in the groove on weekends to paint, usually after a stressful week of work - you know?

While I paint I'm inspired with other crazy ideas, so at any given moment I have several images floating around in my head of things I want to capture. That's why I paint with acrylics, this medium suits me best because the paint is fast drying and easy clean-up. I'm experimenting with oils on velvet but that's such a SLOW PROCESS...not good for a fast turnover. Those to be unveiled at a later date (Tiki Oasis 11?)

Funny but I don't drink too much water up in Palmdale so it must be the cold Mountain Dew :) I consume that keeps me going (I drink water while I'm at work.)

I have several more paintings ready to post but I must wait until their owners see them first.

Oh yeah - all of my work is "for sale" but pricing them is difficult as I tend to want to give them away free to friends. Let's say I'll trade easily. I only say this because I've had inquires in general when I talk to people (and interest on Facebook, here on TC etc). I'm hoping to find my equivalent of Aloha Barney I guess :wink:. So, catch me in a good mood and...?

Over and out for now...maybe I'll hang-out with you at Ron & Mickee's party Saturday night? G
