Aloha tiki peeps!

Its been a month since my last post so its time for an update - I've been busy with plenty new and different projects. Some have made it to their owners already, some not. Today I present three pieces in the Poly-Pop vein relevant to Tiki Central.

First up -

"La'ila'i of the Kumulipo"
Acrylics on 24" x 36" stretched canvas.

My rendering of La'ila'i was inspired by a Burke Tyree velvet painting I saw up for bids on eBay a while ago.

Second -

"Waikiki from my Balkoni"
Acrylics on 14" x 18" canvas panel.

Based on so many Waikiki renderings we've all seen before; I wanted a loose and free vibe for my rendition so I only used a knife here, no brushwork involved.

Third -

"Fortune Giver"
Acrylics on 24" x 36" stretched canvas.

Another work executed mainly with painting knife and loosely based on Witco's famous "God of Fortune" idol.

I have finished another painting i.e. a John Lennon tripping on acid portrait that you may view on my facebook page - Greg Reyes (Tikig) - if interested.

I've been asked if I will take a commission for family portraits or single portraits (or just plain whatever) - the answer is yes...especially if the painting shall be a Christmas gift - please contact me asap.
Thank You in advance.

P.S. an update of my "Welcome to Pacific Ocean Park" painting-in-progress coming soon.

Happy Halloween! Peace and Love, TikiG
