I still cringe when I look at it... I dunno, but I think it is best to move on for now. I am ok with how the drink looks.... It's just, just, the girl may not be amazing enough (?) .I could keep painting for the next 5 months... but that's now really a possibility with teh art show coming up in July. I got 2 more to do and a surf board! Like the wise folks you are, I think u know best.... for now I am going to make like Paul Stanley on his solo album and "Move On!". Say hello to "Tiki Cat"'s brother "BONGO CAT"! This one has been jumping around in my head ever since Tiki Cat made such a big splash here last year... it was on the calendars, post cards, refrigerator magnets, greeting cards... everyone went gaga over it, and I really intended to have another figure in a another painting facing him, like book ends. Wouldn't that be cool in a tiki bar? So here we go... roughed in the canvas. You can see some extra detail on the full sized giclee of TIKI CAT; that's an artist's remarque requested by the cool cats who bought that print. (Their anniversary date drawn in the sand) ALOHA & Mahalo for the help!
