'THE COMPLAINERS"
with a beautiful hefty Mikel Parton frame
acrylic and cel-vinyl on masonite
20x16"

sans frame...

First off... this is the first time that the pufferfish is thrown into the role of griper....or is he trying to cheer up the other Downer Frowny mugs?

This Lono is definitely airin some grievances!
and i imagine the headhunter in the foreground will be complaining of a cracked tooth after chomping on that
rock hard noggin! Also note the coconut mug in the foreground.
i choose that because the exterior is so rough and gruff...
or is it "grough"?

and here is my dream volcano Lono Bowl
Now these fellahs are the MAIN subject of the title
as their crabby attitudes emanate outward...
But can you blame them? they never

  1. get to look at each other when they're talking
  2. they never get to see the spectacular volcano eruption...
  3. the other Lono is ALWAYS talking behind your back!
    :)

and a little slice of peacefulness with some
gentle lights and the bird shield....

and an abstract concept moody piece
a little deviation from the regular colorways
but it turned out nicely...
kinda WEIRDLY nice
but a fine departure to build upon in future pieces....

"Ancestor Rain"
38x13"
Acrylic and cel vinyl on wood
with a Raw Unfettered Bamboo Ben frame!

i imagined a light rainfall of Ancestor Spirits
trickling down from the stars
flowing downward
slipping over and thru branches
and each other
as they creep about and explore their sleeping village....
and greet a newly emerged spirit...
(lower left)

All of these are derived from studies of shield and masks
from the new Guinea area
and then Ruzic'ed up a little...

LOVE the little upper right fellow!
all peekin from behind the tree
like he's shy and giggly!
and big moonface
clawing about as he descends down into the village....

Here's a CLOSE-UP to enjoy.....
Note the tree behind/thru him...
and his transparent arm
grasping and feeling around...
also the arm of an Ancestor above him
swoopin right thru his eye!

Here's a newly emerged Ancestor Spirit
rising out of his skull
and readying himself to meet his fellow ghosties

Hereis more of a PAN-OUT view from the above close-up....
some palms and rolling hills and various scattered bones
and a hut
and.....
oh great! i forgot to paint the shield on the HUT!
my duh...
i especially like the arm reaching downward thru the palm.

Here's a little higher up
a bigger concentration of personalities
and more of a tangle thru the trees
like wind and rain....

and here's the top of the painting...
where the Ancestor Spirits come from...
the stars
the heavens...
even the mask attached to the tree seems to come to life
to greet these spirits as they percolate down from the treetops...

Well.... that's all i got kids!
Thank you for your comments
and visits..i hope these paintings bring a smile to your day!
Night! Night!
