A L O H A T I K I T R I B E !!!

Count down to the art show.... 17 days left!!!!

Wait is it 17 or is it 16? er...I'm not sure. Lack of sleep muct be getting to me. Oh well, "More Red Bull" - gotta focus on what I'm getting ready today.

Thursday, Sept 9th: I'm working my "day job" - a big "Tiki Shark Hawaii" beach towel order for a new client here in Hawaii. Yes, it would be nice if this would have happened AFTER the show, but we need to make deadlines for the factory. And, it's great to break into the tourist market here in Hawaii. That has taken some time.

Of course, this means I'm painting late into the tropical night to get the last painting finished. This last painting may be coming with me on the plane.

The Gallery in Maui just shipped the few originals they had to the venue in Manhattan Beach. I'm packing the originals I have been hording here this week end, and I'll ship them early next week. They should all arrive in Manhattan Beach in plenty time for set up. Am I a bit nervous? YES!


Some Exciting news: Here's a first look at my art on the cover of the "16 page supplement" that's packaged along with issue #21 of the french magazine "KUSTOM". It'll seem like you are buying a new magazine poly-bagged to include a vintage comic! Too fun! Will this actually fool any french people? Not sure, but it's cool to see it. I hear there is a box of them on the way to me. I hope they get here in time so I can take some to the art show.

Here's a link to the mag:
