Aloha tiki tribe!
So, October is on da' way. I've been asked by the University of Hawaii to speak... about pop culture and Hawaiiana, I guess. I'm a bit nervous. Wish I could bring someone like Sven Kristen with me! Should be fun... really how can u say no to such requests? Not spread "Tiki Culture" to the new generation? Gotta. I always liked it when working professionals came & spoke to my art classes.
Speaking of October - my local gallery wants to do a "Hawaii-ween" art event with me. I'm gonna carve up some pumpkins, do some live painting. Should be fun!
Also... Hula-ween is a good time for "chicken Skin" stories...
U dig that last scary tale? (Love Vincent Price in 3 Skeleton Key - maybe I should do a Tiki portrait of Vincent?) Found another one. No Tiki's in it... but it does take place in a jungle. It's called "Graves".

Here's another sketch idea for the "Body Glove Creature" painting. Added in some tikis and skulls. Hope to paint it during October. a great image to work on for Halloween.
A LO HA!
