ALOHA TIKI TRIBE!

The Brad Tiki-shark Parker front window room of the The Wyland Kona Ocean Front Gallery, 75-5770 Alii Drive, Kailua-Kona Hawaii 96740, (808) 334-0037
Big Aloha and Mahalo to everyone at the Wyland for supporting my art when many other galleries in Hawaii were not brave enough to show my lurid* Tiki Art.

  • "Lurid": Honolulu Magazine, Jan issue, in a piece called "The Tiki Tribe", quote "Brad Parker creates Lurid paintings that pull in influences from Tiki, Comics, and Rock."

    Hmmmm. It's starting to feel to me as if this were an illustration for the book "Kon-Tiki" by Thor Heyerdahl, if he were sharing the chore of writing with H. P. Lovecraft and had the goal of submitting this work to "Weird Tales" magazine for publication
