Aloha Kids!

Just a small offering for y'alls this time
but it's a study for a bigger painting for Mojave Oasis
and i gotta start on this stuff cause the date is creeping up FAST!

but first...

Greg!
This is almost as far as i can go with this...Publicly
I may show little close-ups and details (as soon as i secure permission)
but they will be unveiled for public consumption in a mere few months!

MadDog-Yup.....i gotta break it into 2 pieces...
do a little bit of rearranging elements...trying a few things
(switching the direction of the light shaft on the right hand piece...move a fish ...that kind of stuff)
but right now i'm awaiting a dialogue with the patron to make sure i'm on the right track...
i wonder if i should MO in this piece....in the background....

GROG-Hello Ernie! Missing you and your humor and your bald pate!
considering the bob show you're starting up....Should be able to do a piece,but the attendance part i may have to skip on due to Mojave Oasis last minute stuff....but we'll see!
are you goin to M.O?

Babs! Yet another old friend i don't get to see or talk to enough!
Coming from your twisted genius,i eagerly await your shrunken head piece..
Shrunken head rabbit or no rabbit.... a real one would be creepy AND get us some great press from PETA!
Now a sculpted shrunken rabbit head would be AWESOME!
Miss you buddy!

Zero-wipe that up and get back to work!

BeachBumz-much obliged,Sir! Glad i could transport you away for a brief moment!

Thank you all again for your visits and comments and questions and insights!
They are much appreciated and they help me push myself...
kinda like the way you work a little better in class when the teacher walks by?
well, it's kinda like that!
and i wanna thank you for filling in when the energy and the Marine Corps discipline are low....
:)

here's my humble offering for today...
it's a study for a piece i will be making for Mojave Oasis...
Need some new inventory...
I have a few spare Bamboo Ben frames lying around the studio
and i'm gonna make good use of them
because BEN is the MAN!
just saw him and Spermy and their lovely adorable significant others at the Melvins a few weeks back!
They freakin played AMAZON!
i was in a Hardcore Heavy Metal Sludge Fog while they played
jacked up on Bushmills and Coke and ,even at my age,ROCKIN OUT!

needless to say,i'm still recovering
but the spirit got re-energized!

Anyways,here's the study to the painting i will be doing
probably tonight!

"SunBringer"
i may change the Brick Red to a Sand or maybe Lt. Olive
....
I'm on the fence...

gotta get to work! Aloha!
